looks a bit young for pruning. Also, pruning or topping the plant can often cause issues if you don't have experience. May want to wait til a new grow to try your hand at high-stress options like that.
Depending on the space, the number of plants, and the light used. You may not even need to optimize canopy that much.
I always got good results with topping, bending, pinching and even defoliating when necessary. Whatever it takes to get more light down to the lowers and allow them to catch up with the main tops for a more even canopy. Don't be scared, worst that will happen is it will slow vertical growth for a few days and cause her to get fat and bushy.

Autoflower plants respond much better to LST than topping...Topping and Major pruning is generally discouraged for autos.
Look into low stress training and go that route.
