s…no lemons or blooms. Suggestions? I have the lemon trees in very large pots and have them in full sun. They have gotten so tall I’ve had to cut them back twice.

Are you fertilizing the trees and providing adequate water? When growing from seed, patience is a virtue. It can take years to get blooms, and longer, if ever, to get fruit.

If you really want to grow lemons, it's best to purchase a grafted tree from the nursery. They can be fruiting in two years or less.
