Q.PARTIALLY SIGHTED SEEKING HELP
THANK YOU VERY MUCH DOC FOR YOUR ADVICE ABOUT THIS BUDY JADE. WHEN WE BROUGHT THEM THEY WERE IN A VERY SMALL POT AND WERE DROOPING BUT NOT DEAD.WE DID PUT IT IN A TERRACOTTA POT. AND LEAVE HER OUTSIDE BY THE FRONT DOOR, SHE HAS PLENTY OF SUN(WHEN ITS OUT) THE OTHER ONES WE BROUGHT DO NOT HAVE BUDS. WE WERE EXCITED ABOUT THIS AND WONDERED IF SHE CAME FROM A MOTHER PLANT AS WE TOUGHT JADES DONT FLOWER TILL MAYBE 10/15 YEARS. WHEN SHE GROWS BIGGER SHOULD WE GOONE SIZE UP FROM THIS ONE.? DO YOU THINK SHE HAS A GOOD CHANCE OF GROWING BIGGER. AND IS THERE ANYTHING WE SOULD DO, WE DONT WATER THEM OFTEN. AFRAID OF ROOT ROT. THE POTS ARE NOT SOGGY. DRY.. I WASNT SURE HOW I COULD REPLY TO YOU SO IVE HAD TO DO IT THIS WAY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP

I still say as I have said, before. It is lacking light, severely. I would not pot it up, and would opt for a brighter spot. The flowering is from stress, as it should not be doing so. It is unhappy in its current location.
Repotting will only add to the stress, so do not do that. You may feed it with a half strength liquid fertilizer, but do not repot.
These articles will help you with proper care of Jades:
