6 weeks in, I'm assuming you'll need at least 9 total, it won't slow shit down Imo. If needed, I would do it.
I try to do all my cutting before buds are big. It's hard to cut off a good looking bud vs a wispy cluster of pistols

is it because it will slow down growth? From Bud's fattening up?

Very slow, yes sir. Is it safe to say you are 45 days days into a most likely 63 day strain?

Cherry pie strain and banana split strain I have and takes 9 weeks and my other blueberry Kush takes 10 weeks of flowering. What do u think? Should I pruned the bottom that's not getting light? I'm on 6 weeks and 2 days of flowering

I would say no way. Should be done around day 21 or earlier. However there are a lot better gardeners than me on this site see what they say. This is just what i would do.

thats pretty late in the game. i'd leave it, for two reasons. the first one is that the main reason to lollipop is so the plant doesn't waste a lot of effort on it, that could be going into the larger buds closer to the top of the plant (and it helps with ventilation a lot). that far into flower, they've already wasted just about as much effort as they're going to. too late. the second reason is that is a pretty fair amount of stress, which could have some negative impact on your plant, like decreased resin production, and possibly hermy-ing, which wouldn't have time to have a real effect that close to the end, but it would just be more wasted effort
