Have you thught of making a stealth veg box out of an old dresser? Check out the DIY sectin. If you take the veg out of the closet, you wont have an enternal light leak. 1st Question. How do you keep the light from leaking in? (from outside the closet/under the door) I veg in 24 hr light, so no worries of light leaks during veg but even a small light leak in flower is not good for your girls. I staple auto upholstery vinyl (already had it) around the inside of the whole door. About 3'' on the door and 3'' coming off. Also, a 6'' peice stapled along the bottom of the door, as a flap. From outside the room you'd never know the light was on inside. Works alot better then the black plastic that I used to use. No more ripping. No more plastic noise while shutting/opening. 2nd Questions. With your limited grow space, why did you choose to veg and flower at the same time? Cycling? or Did it just kinda work out that way? Why not veg a few then flower em? Just curious and kinda high.

I'd just pull the t-5 and put it somewhere else. Why even risk light leaks on flowering plants? I'm sure you could figure out some way of doing it. But to me....it's risky and your time and energy would be better spent creating a different space for your veg area.
