Answer: Groupthink

I think it could have happened by coincidence. For example, they were eating something, and they dropped that seed in the ground next to the house. After that they noticed that the same plant grew when they threw the seeds. Also they could have noticed that the plants grow from the seeds and they connected this idea with the fact that they threw the seed someone.
