It is really easy to get pollen attached to your clothes if you're even in the same building as a male plant (even if you don't know its there). We had a similar problem with our grow when random seeds popped up. We found it was from the male I grew all the way across town when the grown seeds showed similar traits to the male. It had to have been just attached to my clothing and/or hands when I came to the other site.

And think about it. Pollen is five times finer than kief. It takes only one speck of viable pollen to make a seed.

I understand your point regarding the pollen. Doesn't it seem strange though, to only have literally one seed out of two plants? I am not around any other plants, but I do live in a rural area, so I guess pollen could have come in from the wild. If that were the case, I would guess that I would have introduced enough pollen to cause more seed production. I will be harvesting a couple of more plants next week, but these plants show no signs of seed development.
