Or are they manufactured in some way?
I feel like such a blonde (sorry)!

No, they spray them with a growth hormone to make them ripen before the seed forms.

"Seedless grapes are a particular bunch. All flowers -- which comprise grapes -- boost from seeds. yet some human beings opt to munch on candy, juicy grapes with out biting on seeds too. So, grape breeders (those are people who boost distinctive forms of grapes) use their plant smarts to boost the seedless types. Grape breeders create new seedless flowers by using putting the pollen of a seedless grape onto the plant existence of a grape form that has seeds. They then shrink open and examine out the fruit of each and every plant that grows from this experience. The breeders are in seek of seeds -- some flowers would have seeds of their fruit and others won't. whilst they arrive across a plant that has no seeds, or perchance only has very tiny lines of seeds which you does no longer be waiting to flavor, the grape breeders use it to make greater seedless flowers. one way is to shrink off small products of the seedless plant's vine and place it particularly transforming into circumstances in a greenhouse. ultimately, the products of vine will boost roots and grow to be new, individual flowers. this methodology is referred to as propagation. Or, the breeders can graft, or connect, a chunk of the seedless grape form onto a healthful vine base, referred to as a rootstock. think of of it like this: whilst somebody cuts their hand, a physician sews the shrink jointly, and the two products heal as one. The grafted vines boost jointly the comparable way. And, the grape form related to the rootstock retains generating scrumptious seedless grapes."

They are actually quite natural.
There was a mutation in the plant thousands of years ago that produced a grape plant with no seeds. Cuttings of the plant have been cultivated ever since.

Man invented them . They grow naturally but they had to have done some grafting with different variaties to acomplish this kind of a grape! I have a thornless blackberry plant that I bought and it gets huge sweet blackberries on it every year !! I also have raspberries that get 3 to 4 raspberries for every branch usually it's only 1 or 2 also man made to produce more crop!! My goodness you've been thinking hard again !! Good question!! You got me thinking too!! Yikes

Yes they are natural. The art is in the way the little people remove the seeds to make them seedless for us to eat.

well, if they have no seeds, they can't grow new plants .. so, no, without human interfering, there would be no grapes without seeds
