Default Tomato blossom but no fru

FamilyNet Newsgate

ASHad a terrible year with tomatoes. (Last year was marvelous.)
ASThey put out blossoms galore, but never turned into tomatoes.
ASFriend suggested I get a spray to "fix" the blossoms.
ASI did, but no luck.

ASThe one plant, near the compost bin, is still valiantly blossoming
ASbut no tomatoes.

ASAny suggestions?

PBS gardener, Tom Cottle suggested many years ago to add about
a tablespoon of upson salts to ones' gallon of liquid fertilizer
when tomatoes blossom. Works for me here in New England (about
4th of July 8-).

I tried the hormones but it didn't seem to help.

Ciao, Ack.
