Hi @DaHomie During the dark, just 1% of light that the plants exposes, in long run affects the harvest, but as long as it is not intense light in long run it does not affect the plant too much. if you have this problem you should choose to grow automatic plants, these light leaks do not affect them. good luck mate 👍

Hello.. Hope you are well.. Their's alot of discussion on it.. I personally believe complete darkness isnt necessary.. - we have a full moon twice in a crop and potential lights from street lamps etc wen ppl grow outdoors and still get killer crops.. Light interuption can confuses and stress the plants but minimal amount of light here n there shudnt really matter.. e.g-the little red or blue led inside sum plug extension will not b enuf to stress plant.. Obviously u dont want it reflecting around ur mylar if in a silver tent either.. A bit of cotton sheeting here or there stuffed into potential light leaks will do.. Or get door draft insulation stuff from hardware shop(online i suppose atm).. Stay safe n gud luck.. 👍
