Pruning Tahitian Lime after planting in soil (forum)

KanChi starts with ...
Hi folks,

I got around 1.8m tall Tahitian lime tree from the tree nursery. I plant in my backyard 4 weeks now. And after planting I have pruned all fruits and flowers from It. I have almost pruned 1/3rd of the tree and leaving healthy leaves on the plant. But just within 4 weeks I have now more than 100+ flowers and 10 limes just forming out of flowers... What should I do ? Almost every branch on tree has flowers and some has little limes coming out of flowers.

Should I let flowers and little limes grow up ... Or prune it again ... I am new to growing ... But I am really enjoying it ... And don't feel like removing those lovely white flowers and little limes forming from flowers ... But it is too much for this little tree for first time in ground, I don't mind to prune it ...

Need some expert advise and bit of education regarding this situation ...

It is important to get most if not all fruit off so close to planting. Are you pruning the branches off or just manually picking of the fruit and flowers? As the second one would be better. If its already 1.8m then leave a few fruit for you to enjoy
