This has to be the fastest way to find males. Other than using female seeds. As, I was in flowering I had the lights set to 12/12 - same for the seedlings; by my second week I noticed balls on two of my plants and female parts on the other one. I started flowering 3 days after my 2nd week into veg.

*scratches head*

why are you vegging under 12/12?

(and yes, switching lighting to force sex, will do that...but then you have revert time, and slow down their growth.)

I wasn't meaning to veg under 12/12, I was just in a flowering stage with no where else to start my seedlings... So, I went with what I had.. Didn't have any revert time. I killed the lights like normal to start the flowering (Day 15). Day 17 the lights came back on. I haven't notice'd a slow in growth at all almost 4ft high 2 weeks in flower and only a month old.

LoL, scratch that

Well, I kinda just stumbled upon it like Newb said, but if I can flip a plant at 2 weeks into flower, than isn't it possible to flip a plant at its 1st week of veg. into flower or might that be too soon to flip, this of course is without fimming. As, if I was topping the plant might be shorter in height and have double the bud sites.
