That is the true test. If a strain review says it is a 9 week strain I figure at least another 10 days.
So your still in there were I'm at. I flip and wait till I see early flower then start counting usually 1 1/2 to 2 weeks from flip. But I have had some start early flower in as little as 6 or 7 days.
 
I count from flip. They key to this is that the plants are mature enough and preflowering prior to switching the lights. If they're only vegged for a short time they will take a week or 2 to transition to flowering. You'll see this often when growing from seed and flipping at the 4-5 week mark when you're not even sure of sex yet.


Here's an example....this is 15 days post flip and already forming buds. If it wasn't vegged long enough there's no way it would be at this point already.
