Hey guys my girl never used to get the light from the street lamp at night, but now that she is alot taller, she was getting alot of light on her at night. I made sure to cover her in flowering, but she is still growing, about 4 of her main tops get a bit of light on them at night, should I be worried??

well i read a post about a guys plants gettin light from his security/flood lights on his house and most people said that, that amount of light is not significant enough to do anything. now idk how bright they are but if there your standard road lights you should be fine but more input would help cause im not 100% sure my self

hasnt seemed to of effected mine, but they are in buckets and i moved them any way,,,,but a signifacant amount of lite that interupts her dark period can slow budding process and could turn possible hermie....i just made a stupid mistake the other day telling somebody that inturpting the dark peroid could start budding which is WRONG ,,and few guys replyed back with the answers i just gave you..
 
I have seen a plant half in flower and half in veg from a street lamp but it was literally half the plant being lit up at night not sure what just a few tops being hit would do, probably nothing.

OK here it is in a drunk context. Plants need Dark plants need light
when its dark the girls produce a hormone and if there is any light at all what so ever it stops the hormone
plants grown with lights indoors can become hermaphroditic if there are unwanted sources of light during the 12 hours lights out
the street lights are HM 1000 Watts to at the distance from your plants will make them grow and not produce the hormone
now one of you Pot Einsteins correct me 8(

My girls grow less than 50´ from a sodium streetlight with no problem whatsoever. Sure fucks up my astronomy though.
