Waiting until you see pre-flowers (to determine the sex of the plant) is usually a good idea. Just keep in mind that the plant will double or triple in size from the time you start flowering, so sometimes you need to flower early so you don't run out of space.

Agreed tops. But also you wanna wait till the 5th or 6th internode (spaces between the leaves or the set of leaves) the plant is ready to develops its sex. What I like to do is once im at the 6th set of leaves I put them under 12/12 until the sex shows. The easiest way to skip this process is to buy feminized seeds or clones. But I hope this helps. Best of luck!
