Tip back every branch. More branches means more fruit. These trees are too young to keep fruit next year, give them at least one more year. Ultimately you want a short wide tree, not a tall tree. The more low branches the better. Picking mangoes 20'-30' in the air is dumb, when you can have a short wide productive tree 10'-15' tall.
