Dont prune. There is no need at all, and it'll stress the plant, causing a stunt in growth, which you dont want.

If your growing it outside you need to wait untill the natrual light cycle is 12/12 for it to flower. The plant mesures the uninteruppted dark cycle which releases a flowering hormone.

You need to keep the plant in 12 hour direct sunlight and 12 complete darkness for 8 -12 weeks, if its a pure sativa it can take up to 14 weeks to finish flowering.

I suggest you read the grow FAQs and check out the growing forums, but at the moment it looks alrgiht.

[Remember you only want the female cannabis plant, not the male as the female is the only one to produce bud. A male plant will produce pollen which will not get you stoned.

Males plants have small balls and the internodes, while females have little white hairs all over the internodes.

thanks billlionfold and lip for replying. Hey Lip, you seem like a knowledgable guy huh. i asked about pruning because i don't want it to grow that big,(by the way, do you know how tall will it become when it matures?). hope to hear from you again...cool guys!

from the beginning of the budding process to the end the plant will get 2-3 times bigger.
