Default Best way to bet against a flush?

In a very passive 10 player game with little to no preflop betting, and flop gives me top pair top kicker along with 2 same suited cards, how should I bet against the very likely flush draw?

Should I wait until after the turn card to bet ( to minimize chances of a flush ) or should I just raise immediately at the flop? Or should I make different sized bets at each interval?

There's also a risk of someone getting 2 pair or a set, but I'm playing against other newbies who usually make it quite obvious when they get such a hand.

You have to bet this... about a pot size. A fold is OK (edit: from them), but even if they chase you win more often than not

Be the one to introduce the preflop betting. Gives you a huge edge and you will probably start winning.

If you flop TPTK just bet. I would usually bet around 3/4 of the pot.
