Possible Light Leak??
Is there a particular reason you are wondering about a light leak issue?
As I understand it, there are a few of possibilities for what happens to a plant when there is a light leak:
1) The leak is not bad enough to be detrimental. As long as the light level in the room is around or less than a "typical" moonlit night, then you should be ok.
2) Enough light gets into the room to cause an interruption in the plant's flowering hormone process. I think I remember reading that just 2 minutes of exposure to fairly bright light in the course of the dark period will interrupt the hormonal process and cause the plant to not flower.
3) Hermaphrodites? I guess this would be somewhere in between. Or possibly the light leak is introduced at some point after the plant has started flowering? Not really sure about this one though...
Anyway, it seems that your plant is flowering, so it doesn't look like it is an issue to me.
Then again, I'm not an expert
