Default Unfertilized seeds - Are they feminine?
Hi, I recently harvested 2 plants, both female. In one of the plants, I found two seeds, though there were no males in the crop. My question is, are they likely to turn out female due to the lack of fertilization?

I think the chances are still mostly 50/50 for the seed chance, but whether or not it's female does lean somewhat on the environment in which the plant grows.

Regardless, the quality of the plant depends greatly on the quality of the seed, which is probably not good if the seeding plant was not grown with equally balanced nutrients.

i just read something the other day about when this happens (assuming you didnt have a hermie) that the few seeds that do form tend to have very feminine tendencies.

but at the risk of spreading bs, dont take what im saying as fact..

This, same thing, happened about 2,000 years ago. It was called "The Immaculate Conception"!!! It really caused a big stir that goes on to this day - it was in all the papers. But seriousely - - - -

If a female cannibis plant grows to maturity, with no exposure to pollen, there is no pollenization. Therefore, no seeds - that's what sensemilla is all about! Since you only got two seeds, my guess is that a couple of horny pollen grains found thier way in there and had thier way with your female plant - if that's the case - the seeds should be "normal" (50% / 50%, male/female).
On the other hand, if your plant was a "Borderline Hermie", the seeds will most probably be unviable, or else just produce more hermies.
