Getting mixed opinions on my Google-fu, some say to give the tree only a few spots to grow, others say to leave them. So what’s Lemmys opinion? Thin at all? If it’s clustered leave one per cluster?

I have two, they are mixed species trees from HD, there’s September ruby red, battleford and good land apples.

    You can do supports different ways, stakes are popular, but you can also use rope to bind back to the base of another branch or two. You can also let nature take it’s course and let the strong limbs get stronger while the weak limbs break away and more energy gets allocated to the rest of the fruit.

    You would have to look at the characteristics of the variety and decide which way is better for what you are going for.
