update pics and a question

Hi everyone!
just posting another update pic of my rapidly growing garden. I do have a question regarding my three yellow squash plants. They are kind of overtaking everything around them. Would it be ok to "prune" them? To cut off about 1/3 of the stems and leaves to thin it out? would that hurt them?

I doubt that it would hurt them. I'd maybe thin the one that is crowding the most and see what happens.
