Night light penetration

Hi guys, I joined recently and am loving some of the tips and help available to guide me on my first grow in SE Asia, where I am currently mid veg in a Sativa grow. I think they are pure Sativa, donated to me by my wife's family. Perhaps I'll post a couple pics in next few days and someone could lmk if it could be another strain.

I am growing organically outdoors in a plastic greenhouse with a 50% sunblock, as it gets pretty hot here! The issue I have is regarding night light penetration from my next door neighbours house which is situated 20 meters from the greenhouse. They keep a bunch of low strength outdoor lights on, and it means that the greenhouse does not get completely pitch black, probably like 70-80% at a guess. There is also a solar street light which flicks on and off every so often annoyingly!

Have read a few comments regarding light and its impacts, but was unsure if these minor penetrations have the potential to cause issues heading into flower (or even now!)?

Appreciate any help on this topic <3

I don’t grow outdoor but out of my bedroom closet. I often have to leave the door cracked a bit for air flow and temp reasons, so some
Ambient light from room gets in. The only herm I’ve had was with some bagseed that I grew and being bag seed, it most likely had herm traits genetically. If the plants your growing have strong genetics I would think you’d be safe, but am also interested to see opinions from outdoor growers on this!
