Pinch Cuttings?

Does anyone pinch out the growing tip of their cuttings after a few nodes to get it to branch out?  Or is that a little dangerous at this point?

Strong roots, good top-growth....just wondering if anyone does this regularly, or if it avoiding until later...

I don't pinch anything till growth season, and then after 5 or 6 leaves.  Just my two cents.

I don't pinch anything until the tree is well established.

No pinching at that stage. I think that would put undue stress on the young trees.

Pretty unanimous!  Haha,  question answered!  :)
