Light leak and phone flashlight

The plant has had totally dark cycles in the last few months and practically since about a week and a half I have to leave an opening in the grow box for the dehumidifier to keep everything below 50% so at first I was already paranoid about this since the exhaust pipe leaves a crack open between the door but it seems that no light comes then I had to install another fan with this led and let's say that there I started to worry. . basically the second day I noticed the light and I fixed everything but I had to remove the tape because I needed to see the display and I fixed it with a piece of paper but this morning I saw that the light passed to the sides and I had to totally plug the screen so in total over a week were only 4 days with this light that bothered! Then I put the phone light in the middle because every morning I need to check the light even if only for a minute to be quiet all day at work ... and then every day I have to turn on the light whether the phone or the room to change just a moment the tank of the dehumidifier. In fact, if someone tells me that I can be comfortable I still investigate further! Many times I have also posted in other forums just to get many more points of view and not stop in a simple "quiet nothing happens". This morning I was listening to a podcast about the quantity vs quality of light for growing and they were talking about the fact that many people believe that the green spectrum goes unnoticed by the plant so you can use green lights to work in the grow room or just to inspect it... everyone is convinced that it is true and I have read this many times in many forums but the truth is that it's all bullshit!!! They confirmed that the plant can sense that spectrum and that the only way is to make sure the intensity isn't too high.

It's still wise to exhibit caution. My opinion personally, it's sunlight you reeeally gotta watch out for; if you're not minding your blinds or curtains, a stream of light could be hitting your tent's zipper seam and bam, now you got reveg in the front of your tent.

I never said I had a problem, I simply asked if anyone knew more about this issue. I just wanted to know if anyone had looked into this further, and in the meantime take away some of my doubts about the phone light and regarding the fan led. Unfortunately I haven't found a definitive answer and as you could see even in this post there are those who believe it could be a problem and those who don't. I will always proceed in the same way and will always be careful not to give it light when it shouldn't receive it and just flash for a few pictures as I have always done and never had a problem, only this time I had this problem with the fan light and searching online I was getting more confused than I should.

I am not scientist and if I look how my plant looks like just right now I should not be giving advices. So lets say ppl growing top Q buds saying its Okay, than it is Okay. I will keep covering all those cheap LEDs because only one person who did scientific studies over cannabis has risen his index finger when it comes to the light photons during dark period. Good luck!

I believe I had issue caused by exactly this kind of thing. I am not growing as long as Bk and my skills are deffinitely not better than his, but I am not new to growing as well. You know that something went terribly into shit when you enter your room in full flower and your plants smell like grinded stalks… as I said they are better growers than I do so their advices are better than mine

"I've heard somewhere" sounds very scientific
