Lotta controversy here on the topic...so expect disagreement.

1. you do not have to prune
2. I do...did my major prune weeks ago. I prefer larger kolas vs trimming popcorn so I am willing to take lower yield. I remove small and interior branches that don’t amount to much anyway

I prefer this...just my preference...not saying it is the only way:

Is it too late to prune mine? I don't want to be trimming for years come harvest

I would take the small and interior branches...just be selective and take what you think won’t be a big branch and not too much...like 10% should be ok. They look really healthy...btw!

Awesome thank you one last thing do you think my stocks look OK or the right color And is there anything really at this stage I could do to boost the flowering cause all I after he did is germination seeds I threw them in a spot and kind of messed around and they got moved and all kinds of shit planted them in April lol but all I do is talk to them every day giving water every night And literally that's it I fertilized when I 1st made the spot and turn the dirt but other then that just water every day

Stalks look great! Getting woody. As for nutrients, I probably go too far so I’m not the one to give that advice! I do veg nutrients til flower starts and then I add bloom nutrients...plus anything else that sounds good. Since you are in the ground, you probably have taken care of what they need with just the dirt. Maybe add some bloom nutrients starting now (use 1/2-3/4 what they recommend), get a loop or microscope to check your trichomes, and see how it goes. Good luck and show us your bud porn!
