First Outdoor Grow, Need Advice on Topping / Pruning!

Hello All, just some quick info: this is my first time growing outdoor weed. I live in Southeastern Ontario Canada. I transplanted this into the ground around May 20th, and pruned a few dead leaves and lower branches around May 31st.

It is currently June 10th and my plant has taken on a bushier shape and I am curious as to where or if I even should top my plant.

I was also wondering if a light pruning / topping at the same time can over stress the plant? I did want to prune it again but was wondering if I should wait a bit after topping it.

I attached some pictures of the plant. I cannot tell where to top, if I should top it at Site A, Site B or Site C.

Any help and information would be great! Thank you!

I'm also doing my first grow so not speaking from experience here, but I've read not to top outdoor plants as that can create a weak point where it may split the plant down the stem once heavy with buds.

You just have to be careful when and where, otherwise you can have it split.

I have had that happen, I came out to admire the girls, and one, which was about seven feet tall, had split most of the way to the ground like someone had cut it in half, the two halves were splayed out almost lying on the ground. But, I was able to tie it back up and it healed okay.
