Im far from an expert, but from what i gather, you should wait untill the plant has established itself, otherwise it just wont work. I personally would wait over a month before even thinking about flowering. But hell, what do i know.

Sativa ? Indica? All depends. Look at people doing SOG grows, they flower right when their clones are rooted (to give you an idea of size), but only yield 7-14g (approximate) per plant.

With a sativa plant you may be able to start flowering right away, but I am not sure how successful you would be. Look for some 12/12 from seed threads, I think they are using pure or close to pure sativas. Equatorial sativa would be your best bet seeing as they are basically 12/12 their whole lives in their natural environment.

You can't start flowering it just when it pops out of the dirt. You've got to veg it out until at least 6-10 inches, depending on what you're after, and then flower. Like rezz said, it could be about a month depending on strain, environment, room conditions, your skills, etc;

You can go 12/12 from the beggining from seed if you really want. Best to wait at least until they are sexed though. Clones can for sure go 12/12 soon as they are rooted...ala SOG. For pure sats or sat dominants from seed you need to let them age a bit in veg well past when they show sex to achieve full potential when you flower.

If it's a sat dom or pure sat you can also flower from seed but you'll for sure achieve less than maximum potential as compared to an indica dom or pure indica under the same conditions...from what I understand.

You'll have seeds on your hand if any male pops then spreads pollen AND there's a fem developed enough to pollinate. Don't see any reason you couldn't sex any plant, male or female, before the possibility of anything happening though.
