A) Stunting through small pot size shouldn't affect the flowering time, but won't let your plant get to it's full potential size either. Start in a decent size pot - 1-2 litre or more, and transplant up immediately at sex and you should be good.
B) Leaving an AF in a small pot too long they can be in danger of being underfed/developing deficiencies very quickly, they can recover somewhat given food and a transplant into more fresh soil.
C) If you stunt a seedling through nutes being too hot in my experience that will add time and leave you very little.
All the above can leave you with a bud on a stick. C is the worst in my experience.
There are different degrees to how badly a plant can be stunted though,
I've done all of the above in the past!
You just want to give them as stress free seedling stage as you can really, and then when they are in the pre-flower growth spurt the more soil/light you can give them the better they will do. Although there are limits to how much volume of soil they will actually be able to make use of, however more soil will help later on as it will have more nutrients available. AF's will pretty much grow 4-5x the size they were at sexing
Anyway that wasn't meant to be a scare story mate, get the basics right on not stunting and they really are the easiest, quickest plants to grow

But that didn't really cover growing Auto strains of cannabis on a shoe string.. more Hardy Ornamental Stock Production, Nursary Layouts and Regs, Lawn Establishment & Maintenance etc etc.
