my veg room door is leaking light .
permalink

hello all
i never had to deal with this situation ,but this time i got myself a not a smart place to grow and i have no choice.
i have a small room in the basement where i made into a veg room and i'm flowering outside and the stupid light is leacking out i was gonna use black and white plastic sheep to cover it.
anyone have a better idea of handling this situation?

i never had this problem before because i would just use upstairs or something as a veg room before.

A roll of tape is a handy thing for slinder light leakage around door jams and such.

I made my light proof door with black plastic & tyvek, i made the door about six inches larger than the opening. I taped magnets at matching intervals along the door and along the door frame so it pulls itself closed. You could also use magnetic strips.

It doesn't make a difference if the vegging room is leaking light or not except for stealth purposes. It's flowering when you can't have a light leak. Put a picture of it up and we'll let you know what would probably work best for you if you are worried about the light leak. Is it a cabinet in a room that's for vegging and the rest of the room is flowering?? I use the 3/4 inch weatherstripping on my doors.

Happy Growing
