Hey! If I am doing a 18/6 veg light cycle... Does it need to be completely light free during the 6 hours or will light leaks still cause hermie's like in flowering?
Thanks!
Only light leaks during flowering will upset your plants.
Light leaks during veg have absolutely no detrimental effects.
It is however probably best not to have them or minimise the frequency as best you can.
Hope this helps,..........

The light coming in during the dark period can disrupt key functions. ... Any light leaks after the switch can disrupt this and put plants back into vegetative growth or cause them to hermie.
