Not an expert but have plenty of them around.It seems your soil is not rich.Some plants are also young.They will bloom their time is coming.Try to add some manure in the pots.

Fertilize them with DAP, give them half day sun and dont cut the leaves till December.

DAP is not a correct fertiliser feed NPK 2-1-2 or 2-1-3. 800 parts/million Nitrogen dilution fortnightly throughout the growing season.
The following link should be of some help to all Hippeastrum growers.
