if you can spare it, destroy it. if not pick the male flowers and yes this will reduce the amount of seeds.

i just had a plant hermie on me, it even pollinated another one of my girls but when i chopper thhe hermie there were no seeds present at all. it was a sensi hermie bud

its the only plant i got i think it hermied due to a light leak and so your saying by pulling all the nuts off will reduce the amounts of seeds in the bud?

Pull it's nuts off before they open up and spew pollen. If they have already split and dropped their load, you're screwed. You will have loads of seeds if you let it mature. Plants that hermie in early flower usually get the axe in my garden. Some ppl like them for the S1 seeds.

I take it you are early into flowering. Like stated, if you can spare it then toss it. Picking balls every day is a pita. The longer you go into flower it will be harder to spot pollen sacs, many are inside the bud and can pollinate it and all plants around it. One pollen sac can pollinate hundreds of plants with a good breeze
 
Yes, as chielfsmokingbud said, in addiction to having to pick off the buds, most people don't realize that male parts can and do grow inside of the buds, so they go undetected. In fact, it's not unheard of for a grow to think he has a female, because there are no visible male flowers, and then ends up with seeded bud and wonders where it came from, when there was no male in the room, when it was just a undetected hermi.

Dude...just relax...and face it. You are gunna have some seeds and you won't know ...even approximately how many....until the grow is complete, and you harvest. Chances are you are gunna have lotsa seeds. Especially since it's early into flower. Discovering herms is always a frightful situation.
