How to induce flowering in coffee plants?

I have bought 24 coffee plants, as houseplants. I believe they are 2-4 years old. I need to know how to trigger flowering? I know some plant’s flowering is triggered by reduced lighting or by watering patterns, but I cannot find any information about coffee plants. Please help me?

Just use a syringe to induce the coffee into the flowers, though why you would want to induce coffee into flowering plants I can not fathom.
Coffee usually requires a rainy season in order to set bud. A lot of humidity should help you out. Keep in mind though, most coffee trees yield about a pound….maybe two pounds of coffee beans at most. Don’t expect a significant harvest!
