There are lots of solutions. Try to be creative. You could use weather stripping, or foam insulation, or cardboard, or a heavy blanket, there are hundreds of solutions. Try to come up with the one that works best for you.
Good luck! |

deja vu. Just saw another thread like this so im just gonna copy and paste, tell you the same thing.
I had the same problem in my grow box. I took white poster board, and spray painted one side black. I put the black side against the door and had the white side facing the plant. It reflects all the light, and doesn't let any through. Hope this helps. <!-- / message --><!-- controls -->

Expanding foam insulation works great. You can buy it at any diy center. Its great for filling in all the tiny impossible cracks.

i had the same problem approaching flowering with my new setup and opted for removing flowering plants to another, light-proof area of the house. This way you can veg another 6/8 hours after they are put to bed.not ideal i know, but I plan on dismantling again soon anyhow
