Peach tree pruning

11 years ago

I will start by saying I know nothing about peach trees.....I planted 7 bareroot trees last winter and have been absolutely amazed with the speed of their growth. From dime and nickel size trunks to a year later the biggest trunk is larger than a tennis ball with a canopy 10 feet across. They are just covered currently in blooms and the earliest type already has quarter size peaches on it.

The trees have some pretty big limbs that are growing up through the middle of the tree that I know must go....my question is do I leave them and let them produce fruit then prune them? Or should I take them off now? I want to try summer pruning the trees.
