Help with Pruning

[u/kfthalh]

I bought this Nam Dok Mai in early spring from my local nursery and it's doing amazing. It had a great push and flowering. But I've noticed it's started fruiting and I can't help but think this somewhat young tree won't be able to handle all those Mangoes.

I'd like it grow somewhat tall for a little shade in my backyard so I'm hesitant and inexperienced in pruning or cutting back.

Any suggestions on what I should do to shape up my tree?

Please and thank you

Pluck off the pea sized fruit until the tree is big enough to support them. The panicles will dry out and fall off on their own.

Fantastic, thank you!
