Syzygium cumini (jamun, java plum) how to grow?

Hello,
I bought this tree earlier this year along with few others. I don't know how to take care of it. It was growing rather bushy so I pruned the lower branches. It's extremely slow, hasn't grown much upwards but keeps producing lower branches. I have no idea how to prune it. As I understand it is supposedly a huge tree. The main stem is rather sloppy and keeps bending even though it has support. Around May I fed it treated cow manure and chicken pellets and also fish pellets, to which other plants responded very well (that's pretty much what we have in terms of organic fertilizer). Also the leaves have brown edges, could it also be from heat or is it some kind of disease?
Any info would be appreciated.
