Looking to get schooled on probability. I believe I know the answer but for some reason I find 'odds' somewhat hard to grasp from time to time. A couple of years ago I had purchased 25 feminized cannabis seeds. After germinating and growing only 1 to maturity, it resulted in a male plant. After some research it seems that true feminized seeds are female 99.99% of the time, which would be 1 in 10,000.
So now I'm faced with either having purchased junk seeds that weren't truly feminized, or I was just in the unlucky 1 in 10k. Well over time I grew the remaining 24 seeds only to discover them ALL to be female. Since I hand picked the only male out of the entire batch, is it correct to say the odds of that happening to me were 1 in 250,000?
