When to start skimming?

As the title sais... When do you know when to start using your skimmer?

I use to believe to start skimming when I added uncured liverock to my tank, now Im reading it really doesnt matter, skim when you are cycling or skim when your done cycling, it seems from what I've been reading that it makes no difference.

I'd recommend skimming right from day 1. If you have a tank full of uncured rock and you're not skimming, ammonia levels could easily get excessive during the curing process.

I also agree with chris, if you have a skimmer start skimming from day one.

That pretty much answered my question!
