Lemon Tree In A Container

I’m growing a lemon tree from a lemon seed. Its nearly 4 feet tall now but I was wondering if I should prune some of the lowest limbs to promote growth at the top. Any advice would be appreciated. By the way, I will be bringing it indoors come winter… I live in West Virginia

There is no reason to do so, at this time, unless the idea is to keep it shorter. Then, you would prune the top, though.
