You think this little lady is to bushy and might be susceptible to mold? This is probably my smallest girl but by far the bushiest not sure if ill have an issue with it or not already some how got a small amount of mold on one of my amnesia and is alot more aired out.

I not sure about the mold issue, need to get an answer from someone with more experience than myself, but I can tell that this year I had 4 plants that I opened up by training them and they ended up getting so bushy they were a pain the ass to take care of. Really hard to spray them, hard to water, and hard to inspect for insects, etc. I ended up having branches hanging down to the ground even after tying them up. I just pruned the bottom growth the first week or so of flower. I'm by far no expert, just my experience, ask more knowledgable growers. They do look good though.

As long as there isn't any dead leaf in the middle or sagging in soil you should be fine. If you run into problems try finding more mold resistant strains. Looking good btw, should be some chunky yields coming soon :)

If you are worried about mold prune the girl a bit so air can move. It's how you prevent mold from happening

Looks good, doesn't need any pruning right now. You can almost see to the soil between each node, that's not bad.

You can however prune if you'd like. My experience is similar to BWG, pruning makes it grow faster and get bushier. I'm toying with the defoliation technique, you can learn more about it from the link in my sig. However defoliation is NOT pruning a few leaves it is the complete removal of all fan leaves.
