5second 'accidental' lights on during dark cycle
Plants been on flower coming 2 weeks now. Couple of times I flicked the room lights on by mistake, not the gro-light (!). But I react accordingly and switch it back off, giving it about at the most 5secs of room light (?). Does this do anything to the plants?
I would guess, it would 'stress' it...but what'd that do?

Take the bulb out so it wonâ??t happen again. If you need to go into the room during dark then use a green bulb and you will be safe. That little time will not really affect the plant but it could stress it if you keep it up.
Use a green bulb

short periods of very minimal light will not affect anything, especially if the room light you're turning on is incandescent. to stress the plant it requires prolonged (1-2 hours a night) for a week or more....
you get moon light, you get lights from cars and what not in the wild... it's prolonged interuption in the light cycle that you don't want.As we live...a life of ease. Everyone of us...has all we need. Sky of Blue...and Sea of Green. In our Yellow Submarine.
