I thought mangoes stop putting out new shoot late September here in South Florida. My 2 years old Mahachanok have new shoots now, if leaves it the way it is, next year when the tree bear fruit it will cause imbalance as the tree canopy seems to heading to one side heavy/more flush. Should I tip it to train the tree now or will it be stunt since we're heading toward colder weather soon.

With this warm weather mine are still flushing too. If you want fruit dont prune it now it will not have time to flush new growth before blooming. Shoots need to be matured at least a few months. Id leave it and prune after next harvest.

Thanks! I will leave the new shoot the way it is, worse case if I will create some sort of support for the tree if it start to lean over one side when bear fruit, then take care of the imbalance branch late summer next year.

Don't prune now. Blooming can start in late Oct / early Nov.
