It depends. Are they all in the ground, or do some remain in containers? Ive yet to come across a lemon bush, so my guess is those are trees. Theres too much info to type out how to prune those, but I do need to mention, pick one leading branch and prune back the competing 2. You risk the trunk splitting down the center once the branches start bearing the heavy fruit. Dont expect quality fruit for at least 2 years. In fact, when blossoms arrive, pluck them off this first year. Let your TREE give its energy to growing stronger, vs. flowers, and fruit. Watch youtube for pruning tips
