help with tomatoes
You don't say where you live, but if the temps are cool, the fruit won't
set. If the temps are 90+ the pollen may be damaged or killed and again no
fruit set. Insects can be a problem, but probably not here if you've got
other tomatoes that are setting. Extreme nutrition imbalance such as high N,
low P,K no calcium can all have a profound effect. I'd say one of these is
most likely your problem unless there's something else you're not telling
us.

Just a guess on my part but it sounds lik elack of pollination.
Maybe a q-tip and gently poking into each one???
