I'm not sure how they do it. But I've grown some that are
considered "seedless". They do warn you to isolate them from
other cucumber varieties or they will develop seeds.
I have read about it, but can't seem to find the info now on how
they get seeds for the seedless cucumbers.  They are called
"parthenocarpic" and are self fertile. They don't need any cross
pollination or bee's. So they'll set fruit when the wx is bad and
bees wouldn't be out. They have all female flowers.
