Be warned that it's very risky putting new cuttings in the ground in their 1st year. But that's done.
This year, I would pinch any branches, trying to create a strong central leader. Then for winter, I'd try (!) to gradually bend the tree to the ground without breaking it. Basically, I'm worried that a 4' upright baby tree would die, so I'm hoping that the bending will help the trees benefit from the relative warmth of the ground.
