Every strain of cannabis grows differently, some grow long and lanky with spread out leaves that wont require much pruning at all.. Others will grow short and bushy and will practically choke themselves out from the density of the foilage. Pruning is done when the plants leaves are too full to let light and air in and around the plants. When air stagnates around the plants it causes several concerns with an indoor garden. First off, it makes it difficult for the light to penetrate to the lower brances, secondly Bugs, mold, and mildew are VERY happy in a crowded environment.. and all 3 will take down a crop VERY quickly if you are not able to spot and control the issues.. Too many leaves on the plant can make it difficult to spot problems like these.. and makes it a LOT more likely for them to occur! The trick is to find a happy medium.. leave enough foilage to keep the plant growing healthy, but remove any that will hold it back.. there are quite a few vids on youtube.. its pretty basic info.. so you should be able to find lots!

Cheers!
