The level of female fertility totally depends on the specific cultivar, and can even change with mutations and different forms of the same basic cultivar. However, for whatever reason many common ABB's just tend to be prone to easily setting seed if pollinated. There are lots of other non ABB that do as well, but its a good starting point.
