possible small short light leak?

Will there be harm if there was light leak (maybe,because i grow in closet and doors are closed durning night but it got small like hole in the middle of doors so its like space betweed that is not closed so doors are able to open,sorry but im little under weed influence so ima try to make it short),so anyway,my girlfriend banged into room and it was 5 minutes after light (lights turn off in 20:01 and she entered 20:05) and she opened the lights and they were maybe 30 sec-1 minute max opened...will that be harm,its in the veg stage (21 days old) so will do that any harm/stress?

Naw won't hurt it if it's in veg

good,you made my day,cheerS!

You are fine this time, but you don't want that to happen in flower. Easier to fix that than to pick out seeds, just sayin

good,cool,do you guys have any tips how would i cover the holes? maybe someone is accualy having same situation? holes are not so big but still,better safe then sorry,tips are welcome! cheers!

Lights don't disturb a vegging plant at all, (you could leave the lights on for 24 hours, if you wanted)
I would fix that leak before flowering stage. There are several ways to patch holes.
1. Cover the hole with silicon/caulk (small cracks)
2. Buy some weatherstripping rolls (medium cracks)
3. Patch the hole with wood, plastic or even cardboard (large cracks)
4. Foil Tape, is a great tool that can fix lots of issues.
I hope this helps ya.

Get some panda film/poly film and a stick on zipper (cost for both will be only $10'ish). Cut the film to the size of the door frame and tape it on around the inside of the door frame. Make a vertical cut down the middle, add your zipper: and you get a light-proof door inside a door.

i've had plenty of light leaks during flower and all turned out well. they're much more tolerant than what you read on the forums. GL

As far as I'm concerned, duct tape usually does the job on sealing light leaks (well, that is what I use anyway) - Happy growing!

"Tarp Zipper" should get you some results, just for examples:

Some Amazon Results

And poly film:

But check locally because, for example, my local hydro store will cut to size only the amount of poly film I want/need for really cheap, and you can usually find those adhesive zippers at Lowes/HD/Walmart type places.
