Yes, something as small as an LED indicator light can throw off the dark cycle!

Keep it super dark.

Some people claim that a green bulb will not affect the plant, but I would avoid this too.

i guess it depends on the strain. I turn on a 1,000 watt every now and then if I need to do sumthing in the room and nothing has ever happened but then agian I have a really strong strain

yeah green light is the way to go
but every now and again i flick em on just to see my girls
but its said that a light leak into the room can fuck shit up
but i always think what about outdoor ,like stars ,car lights and just random lights
doesn't seem to fuck them up too much

Most outdoor grows are in guerrilla locations, far away from cars and street lights, and any other random lights, really... If not, that's a bad location!

The stars would be viable. The moon where I live is super bright!
