Arabica Coffee Plant won't flower...?? - August 16th, 2005 at 03:04 AM
It is probably three or four years old. It has continued to thrive and grow as large as I let it, in a pot. It lives outdoors, gets filtered sunlight, lots of warm temperatures, plenty of water. I bring it inside when the evening temperatures dip below about 65 degrees. I was told that it takes four years before you can "harvest" the berries. Does it not begin blooming until then, as well? (I guess that would make sense.) I don't really feed it, but it loves when I do actually add old coffee grounds to its dirt....cannibal. Could it be that it needs more growing room? Could it be that it needs to be fed more? I would really appreciate the input anyone could provide.
