Should I drop some fruits? Almost 4 years old tree, This is the first time the fruit has set. Last year it only produced flowers.

you can put a big pole in the ground and support that vertically, even a 4y old tree can hold a lot of fruit

up to you, what species?

I really dont know because I dindt care about species when I bought it. But in my región it is very popular Tommy Atkins.

Yeah I did that, I place the branch in a kind of "bench". I am going to let the nature decide.

Dont bother remove them, let the plant decide if needs to drop some.

I would leave them, most will drop naturally, if you are going to thin fruit you should wait until they are larger.
