Help me make my dendrobium bloom
Default Help me make my dendrobium bloom

I have 3 dendrobiums in a pot together, all 3 of them were crammed in a pot with dirt and a massive cactus on the back deck at my moms house. So i offered to save them, nabbed them up, put them in a pot, changed the medium to a firbark/coconut husk mix and sat them on my window sill with some supplemental lighting to let them heal. Well it seems to have done the trick. The new shoots are freakin MASSIVE (i'm absolutely amazed, the shoots are twice the height and girth of all of the old growth), there are tons of new healthy roots but now i want them to bloom. They have not bloomed since the day they were purchased (like 4 years ago) Will they bloom when they are good and ready? Should i be feeding them a high phosphorous fertilizer? I have been feeding them a 20-10-20 until now but dont know if i should be encouraging them to bloom or just let them do their thing. I live In Ontario Canada and they are inside so all conditions are controlled.
