You can get to a point within a couple of days where you feel comfy falling leaf-ing down most slopes in the mountain. Some terrain, like glades, will always be a bit harder, in my experience, though I'm so comfortable skiing through glades that it might just be a personal thing.
Unless you really devote active learning effort towards it, you could easily remain mediocre at toe-edge and real carving for months. I do both, and I still feel like my skiing is miles ahead of my snowboarding because I've just never gelled with facing up the mountain half the time. YMMV though.
