Street lights

Peace everybody, New grower here.
I got myself one plant that has just started the flowering stage. It's placed near the window and gets direct sunlight from about 6 to 11 am, in the remaining daytime it gets skylight and lights from a 120w led bulb (i know it's not much).
I started worrying after i've noticed that there's a hps street light about 100ft away from the window (would assume it's about 400w) such that during dark time the room is not completely dark and i can even see the plant's shadow on the wall.
Was wondering wether it could affect my grow in a bad way ( hermies, popcorn buds, uneven/slow grow, etc.)?

Yea if it’s not completely dark it could cause stress

Sounds it will herm imagine a massive light leak in a tent.

lol if the light is 100 feet away it won't hurt anything, but it would be real easy to close the blinds or put up a piece of fabic or something to block it from hitting your little plant. There doesn't need to be total darkness, it just needs to be dark enough, and not have "useable light" shining on the plant. It's rarely totally dark outside, and when the moon is full, it can be downright bright outside at night. However, that isn't useable light. It's not strong enough to trigger the plants to try to photosynthesize.

I keep the bottom of my flower room door open to allow air flow between my rooms. If I am standing in the flower room, it seems bright, but its just light hitting the floor and reflecting into the room. The actual plants are out of any direct useable light, and so they are effected by it.

Like Thundercat said, but I would minimize the risk as much as possible

If you can read by it it's definitely too bright. Otherwise you might be okay.
Either way, curtains are your friend.

Imagine all those outdoor growers plants turning hermie from the moonlight.
