I got lil peaches! First time peach tree owner. It's 2 ft tall, in a whiskey barrel. It's got 18 peaches, which seems like unreasonable expectations. Should I thin them, or go for it?

I was going to say not to thin them, rather you should ' cling' to them. But, after thinking about how bad my jokes are ... I'll be quiet?

@CrazyQuilter Well now there's a legit reason to have it! I love a good joke. I just can't come up with one.
don't thin out; the tree will take care of it, if necessary. pruning after harvest

Go for it. You might have to stake the tree later to give it extra support. Good luck with your first harvest.
