Hi @twoutom Have you added any phosphate based fertilizer. While nitrogen based fertilizers are great for foliage, the phosphate based ones help with strong flowering and fruiting.
I used it for the first time this year and I have already harvested about ten Lebonese Zuchinni's,five Cucumbers some Black Russian Tomatoes and I have several Butternuts that have set.(I'm finding this year the set rate is much better than previous).
It will also prevent losing tomatoes from flower bloom rot.(the tomato will set and then start dying back starting from where the flower was, looks nasty)
I used a pellet form that i dug in just below the surface once the seedlings had established. I assume you might be able to get a liquid based phosphorus fertilizer that should start working quicker.
Hope this is of help.
