Getting pups off good linebred dogs that you can gauge the pups off of will tell you when to cull the pup just like Big Ben said.  If you know the bloodline then you'll know exactly when to cull.

18 months is a good indicator for me though, if it's later then that, then I'm going to question the line itself.  Some dogs fire off young and burn out, some start slower and just finish off to be better, and some make a smooth steady progress.
