When Is Best Time To Remove Fruit From My Satsuma Manadrin, Transplanted In-ground This Spring?

I transplanted the tree 1 month ago and it already has flowers and small fruit. I’ve heard it’s a good idea to remove all the fruit in the first season to avoid stunting the growth of the tree. Should this be done in spring, summer, or fall? Thank you.

This should be done at the earliest time possible. Now will be fine, as there is no real time constraint.
