I had somebody give me a clipping from his pomegranate tree - about 6" starter that had already rooted.
One of the branches has grown to just over 24".
Should I clip it down to closer to 12" so that it can give more energy to growing the trunk?
Or is that too much? Maybe cut off 3-4" for now, and 3-4" in another 6 months?
Or will clipping it then stunt the overall growth that limits its size?
I'd like the tree to maybe end up at about 6-7 feet eventually, but that would be after planting in the ground.
