    More information about these trees would be helpful. Are they seed grown, rooted cuttings, or grafted? Do they receive regular fertilization? How much light are they exposed to? Are they generally healthy?

    Your trees are too young to fruit if they are seedlings. Not too young to fruit if they are grafted. Junglekeeper's questions need to be answered in order to give a qualified answer. However, as it has been 5 days since you ask, you must not be to eager to know the answer. Take care. - Millet
