You still have a ways until harvest. Get a good loupe or hand held microscope to get a good look at the trichomes. You want to see mostly cloudy trichome heads with a few amber.

I believed the white hairs were the pistils and it confused me as theyre already milky white, i thought they eventually went milky white, then brown not grew milky white,

Does that makes sense

Will look more like this; your plant has maybe a month to go..

Ps. The white hairs are called pistils, they start out white and turn brown. What you want to watch are the trichomes on the buds

So do I need to prune any of the leaves from the main stem, your pictures shows hardly any leaves left?

I don't trim anything (although it's kind of a controversial topic) the plant in that picture had already been stripped of most fans and chopped you'll see the little cup of water at the base that I used to stick the stock in if I wasn't going to get to it for a while, I don't do that anymore.

If I'm honest, with a couple weeks or so to go I will trim single top fan leaves that are blocking lower buds, but I do not trim leaves as a general rule
