If you toss a coin you have a 1/2 probability that it's heads and 1/2 that you get tails. If you toss a coin two times you have 1/4 probability it's (heads/heads), 1/2 (heads/tail), 1/4(tails/tails), and so on.
If you toss a coin 1000 times, your expected value is to get 500 times heads and 500 times tails. Getting heads 1000 times in a row is extremely unlikely.
If you get 1000 males from 1000 seeds, you should probably quit growing weed because the god of weed doesn't love you.

See this is why you don't give me alcohol. You're right, thanks for correcting me.

Ok now there's 3 pages of bullshit answers to the OP question. Now if you're friends gave you 7 random kush beans. Then it was probably from a multi female grow. Now why hasn't any response been, that when one female plant throws nannas late in flower and seeds itself. Then yes the majority of those will be hermaphrodites seeds. Point Being, if 1 clone throws Male nannas in late flower AND then pollinated a different clone Then the majority of the other pollinated female will be all feminized seed. So basically that's how feminized seeds are made.? I Ain't No expert, maybe some cannabis breeders could chime in. JM2C

Really? That's very interesting, I did overlook at some point a post around here about something-silver that was supposed to stress a female to the point of throwing seeds, but I didn't read it really.

I got a seed from my last plant I grew and harvested, then is it more likely for that seed to be hermaphrodite? And can I use that hermaphrodite plant to get feminized seeds?

It would have a disposition to produce hermaphrodite seeds as well.

I was going to mention the seeds were probably produced to be feminized but they found they were not all female and it was easier just to call them regulars and sell them.

Theres some RIU members around that would be able to explain the process of producing feminized seeds better than I can. Since I'm not a breeder, but a grower.

When this happened to me ILGM recommended to toss the seeds as they would most likely hermie as well.

Here's a thought to consider. Plants, reptiles, fish most life contains the same chromosomes for determining sex. Common practice of thermal manipulation to influence sex. Modern chicken factory is best example. I have yet find any credible studies supporting my thoughts as applied to gender specific crops. Yet 72 - 75F seem to produce more males than 70-72F with a well insulated and controlled space.

Not if the plant that produced the seeds was a selected female .By that I mean grown from a pack of regular seeds a female found then stressed ,that can will cause feminized seeds .But that doesn't mean there stable,high chance they will be though.Ive had feminized seeds through seeds 100% of those turned out feminized stable to.I was gutted because it was pheno finders blue sherbert s1 ,dank plant.I sold the bud with seeds in it ,there was prob 40 seeds in a lb ,he's still using em to this day
