didnt know Forest's a french name....

Yea, weird hein?It may come from my nova scotia origins..???But can you answer the question or your just here for my name :).

I don't know if there's much you can do to "force" blooms. My advice would be just to make sure it gets the proper light, food, and TLC. Good Luck!

I don't think you should force your tree to bloom at this time. The tree is still small and you just repotted it. Just leave it and it will bloom when the time is right. Even if you force it to bloom, it might not be able to hold the fruit. My nam doc mai bloomed around January indoor and bloomed again around June outdoor. It only hold one fruit and the rest dropped.

Yeah, Sam I also see no need to force it to bloom, but i'm guessing it will bloom later in the spring each year. My California mangos bloom in March as we are not as warm as Florida, so I'm just guessing you'll probably be in late April or May some time, maybe.....

The tree has enough brains to know when it's time to send out some flowers...you'll see....

lots of light and heat.

you'll need a 4 tube shop light with T8 flourescent tubes. they're available in sun 6500K, full spectrum, warm 4000k, etc etc. lots of info in the "growing under lights" forum. there are other options, like single clamp on lamps with high wattage CFL's, or metal hylide lamps or sodium bulbs, etc, etc.

heat mats to keep the roots warm, keeping the room in the 80's F or around 25-30's C

don't overfertilize, it can dmg or kill your tree.

Thank you guys!You must be right it will bloom by itself....I already have a 150 w hps grow light but I don't know if it is enough powerful so i'll maybe get a 400w metal halide.What do you think guys?

did a quick search, 150w hps ~ 16,000 lumens, pretty good, but how big is your tree??

400w metal halide ~ 40,000 lumens

in the winter, when there's extended very cold temps, close to 0'C (below 40'F), i'll bring my plants in and run a 3,000 (40w) and a 4,000 (65w) lumen CFL lamp for 12hrs per day. it keeps them growing, my meyer lemon flowered in the house back around jan/feb.

Wow, good that your cfl work for your lemon:).My tree is about 4 feet tall and it will be indoor november till may.
