I have a little Gala apple tree that I planted in 2007. It has a few blossoms on it this spring, and my question is, should I let it bear fruit this year (even if only a few) or should I prune the blossoms off and let the tree keep directing its energy into growing? The trunk is about 1.5" in diameter. Thanks!

It's likely that it would abort all or most of any fruits it sets this year. I'd prune it.
