Once I see signs of a plateau I take a week off. Most of the time it works out to being around 6-8 weeks then I take a week off. No sense in still lifting balls to the wall if I'm not seeing gains. My workouts are rotated as far as exercises, intensity of lifts, rest times and reps/sets to prevent plateauing. For a beginner I wouldn't be worried about plateauing quickly.
A beginners problem is they don't stick with a workout long enough to see results. 6weeks for a beginner is not enough time to benefit maximally to a routine.
