I bought them as cuttings. I have added fertilizer and they are sitting in a sunny spot. I water them regularly.

the scented leaf geraniums don't bloom. They just smell great. Have your bloomed before?
I have had these for years I put only 1/4 tsp Miracle Grow in a milk jug and water like you daily. Do this amount every time. They might not be ready yet to bloom. Give it time. I have my seedlings in a smaller 1 cup container to start them.
Try pouring cool Green Tea that has been steeped, not to much; over time you will see an improvement in your flower!
Epsom salts may help.
I never had much luck with geraniums until an elderly neighbor told me they prefer rain water vs. chlorinated tap water.
for the longest time my geraniums were not happy. finally one day I put them in a partly sunny stair step and hardly watered them during this past winter. In the spring I gave it a little water and then started the epsom salt and water or the vinegar and water or the hydrogen peroxide and water concoctions. here we are 4 months in and the plant is super happy. just watch for cabbage worms. Apparently geraniums like well draining soil that's damp but not soaked and a few hours of hot sunlight
