Is it needed to trim up your plants if they are outside?

I notice how some pictures of peoples girls they are not very bushy but rather tall, my plants are very bushy and about 4-4 1/2 feet tall. I was wondering is it needed to trim up the branches at all during flowering?

if they are bushy already that is good ,i would not bother cutting anything off unless it is a concern as far as folk seeing them ,even then i would tie down or bend rather than trim ,but i prefer to leave my plants alone and let nature do its thing ,no doubt others will say trim ,but i just like to let them go on thier own.

I am pretty sure they are pre-flowering too, there is two whitish redish hairs on each little node thing on all three of the, this is my first grow too.

yeah that definitely sounds like a female. mine just started flowering too (i had 5 males before i ended up with my last plant which thank god is a female). as far as trimming your plants i would say let them be as far as the flowering spots. if you have big fan leaves that are blocking those areas from sunlight then you might wanna cut those but keep that to a minimum as those help your plant grow and produce bud
