Growing a mango tree in a medium pot, pruning?

 


I'm currently trying to grow a mango tree in a pot indoors, as it's too
cold to
put it outside and I worry the temperature change will do it
harm. However I've
heard you're meant to cut off the lead shoot to
encourage branching? But what is
the lead shoot, is that the latest
shoot, or the top of the main stem?

Also, will my mango tree grow large in a medium pot, or should I pot it
up into
as large a pot as possible to encourage it to grow well? Thanks
in advance, I'm
rather new to gardening.
