When will my kidney bean plant flower?

i got a kidney bean plant from my science teacher and it was about a foot tall i planted it in a 10 inch pot and it has been there maybe a month and it has yet to flower. is it too soon for flowers.

When will my kidney bean plant flower?
It will not flower if you give it too much water and/or fertilize it whith a high nitrogen fertilizer such as all purpose miracle grow..Beans are rreal supseptable to root rot and do not like keeping "wet feet"..also beans have a genetic code in them that actually sucks nitrogen out of the air unlike most other veggies...if you fertilize it...feed it a high phospherous and phoshate fertilizer with next to no nitrogen...the first number on the analyze on the containers is nityrogen..get a zero and the second is your phospherous..get one where the 1st number is very low and the middle number very high..the phospherous works on the blooms and fruit as well as the roof...
