Germinating a peach pit?
Be aware it can take years to get fruit this way, and the fruit may be undesirable, if it fruits at all.
This article should help.

I have a young reliance peach tree that has a disease or pest on the trunk. I took this photo 11/26/21 I live in Wisconsin. What is it and how do I treat it?
Your picture did not upload. If uploading is a problem, consider showing several pictures to a local plant nursery master gardener or take samples in a sealed transparent plastic envelope to your Agriculture Extension Service.
I have 3 3 year old peach trees and need 2 remove the stock limbs so my contender peaches can have ALL of the roots growth!? Don't know if I could send someone my pictures of my trees so I can know which limbs 2 cut and which ones 2 keep. Russ Westbrook out
Your photos should have been uploaded as you were uploading your questions. Unfortunately, I couldn't direct you to know which are the branches to keep without seeing them.
I will guide you, as best as I can, through text, though.
Any branch that is originating BELOW the graft scion on the main trunk should be cut. The bark on the trunk will show a clear graft union.
I accidentally sprayed my peach tree with a very concentrated Bordeaux mix and the trunk os blue. When I realized how strong the mix was I stopped and watered it down. Will this harm the tree? It is a mature tree, not sure how old, as we just bought the house last year. I did this yesterday, and the tree shows very small buds and some red growth. The blue is on the lower part of the trunk, but I may have still had the mix a little strong because the rest of the tree has a bluish tint.
You did the right thing in spraying down the tree with water. Hopefully your action was quick enough because the mixture can be corrosive. It wouldn’t hurt to spray it down again with water. The blue color is expected, so that is OK. If the tree seems normal you should spray again in 2 weeks. If it seems affected by first spray, skip the second application.

My plant is completely new so I don't know if it is peach leaf curl which is common. It's only 3 inches tall maybe. It is about 1 month old or so. The leafs are curling and the new leafs coming out are curling too, no discoloration or anything. So far I'm growing it indoor because its still cold outside. I've attached pictures, please see if you can help me.
Peal leaf curl usually has different colored leaves, so it may be environmental. The plant may not be getting enough water. Another possibility could be insects, so carefully check under the leaves for aphids. If you see them, spray with insecticidal soap or Neem oil.
Our peach tree is flourishing and used to produce peaches but then the following year they didn’t develop past a small size. We thinned it out a ton this year as instructed and now the inside has a white soft seed and it stopped growing again. We can’t figure out what’s going on with our tree and why it stops growing. I’ve attached a pictures of the white pit on the inside. If anyone could help we’d appreciate it.
I'm wondering if the leaves of the tree are, also, curling. Premature fruit drop can happen because of Peach Leaf Curl Disease. This fungus can be quite devastating. It can be introduced during pruning if the pruners had not been sterilized prior to pruning.
Other things could include improper soil nutrition, such as high nitrogen and low phosphorus and potassium, or a change in watering habit.
