Hi guys ! I have the 2 ladies over-here looking little bit bushy. I topped them couple days ago and they grow much more bushier ever since. When should I start trimming?

You could remove a few of those big fans.
I do minor trim in early growth, then prior to flower I do a trim removing all fans with long stems . Then I do a 21 day and a 42 day major trim. After that only remove fans that are blocking buds.

I topped them just few days ago. If i start little bit of trimming now. Do you think it will put to much stress on them ?

Wow !!! That’s just insane. As a first time grower , i wouldn’t dare to trim that much off , my friend ! But what do you think of those big fans leaves up top. Should i keep them or cut them off ?
 
The fan leaves are what powers the plant so if anything I'd remove some of the smaller stuff down low out of the light if you're concerned about air flow.

But, everyone has their own approach so with your early grows you want to pay special attention so you can adjust future rounds.

Ours is a pretty hardy plant that can bounce back from lots of stress you throw at it as @gr865 has shown.
