Repotted javanicas

Got these two plants of Phalaenopsis javanica last spring from Ten Shin Gardens. They were supposed to be blooming sized but never bloomed yet.
I decided to put them both into heated propagation trays together with phalaenopsis seedlings to take advantage of hot and humid conditions of that "phal-paradise".
Both were repotted into fresh moss and clean pots to make sure that nothing funny gets into those trays.

Unpotted javanicas showed some new root growth:



Now potted into new pots with fresh sphagnum moss ready to go into humidity trays for their "orchid vacation":



Here I digged out an old picture of them on arrival, apparently they grew two new leaves each:



Does anybody have Phalaenopsis javanica? How do you convince it to bloom?
