I’m happy to let it take the time to get its strength, but I am curious about getting it to flower too. Im guessing lots of light and more phosphorus?

If you want it to flower on its own, I think this is the way to go. You can also cut up an apple or banana and place them around the plant (the gasses they give off will encourage it to flower), or drop a calcium carbide tablet into the middle of the plant with some water (careful when doing this).

Sure! I think it’s how they used to get them to flower. I think they use gas now.
