I have 5 feminized plants and one non feminized. I was wondering if anyone would possibly know if the 5 are feminized, is there a greater chance of the 6th non feminized to become male since its in such a close proximity to the feminized plants? (About 8 feet from them) just wondering so i can really keep a close eye on it, or if its completely 50/50(or whatever the normal percentage of male/female).i guess to sum it up, im asking if there are five definite females, isout agood chance the other regular plant will turn out male?
Thanks.

No sex is predetermined I believe in the seed. This is how you can make feminized seeds to begin with. If it wasn't then you would not be able to.

Proximity to other plants, male or female, won't change the sex of your plants since it is genetic. The odds are 50-50 for your mystery plant to be a male. FWIW, without a genetic male plant, any seeds produced will be feminized. Female plants can grow male flowers, but lack the genetics to make an actual male, so any offspring will always be female. This applies to hermed plants as well.
