The darker the better, total black is the best. As far as a light leak, if it doesn't "shine" right on the plant(s) you should be OK. The bad thing about it is that you do run the risk of your plant(s) turning hermaphroditic. If there's any way to seal the leak, that's your best bet. The plant(s) will still show sex, but as stated, light leaks tend to stress them a bit during flower, so the darker the better.

After the switch in lighting schedule, they can show sex as soon as two or three days, up to two weeks or so. It depends on the strain, how well taken care of they are, stress, and maturity of the plant. Mine typically take anywhere from 4-10 days to show, but I let mine veg for about 3 months also, I like mature plants.

the darker the better......but it really doesnt matter if you have a little light leak, cuz if you think about plants growing outdoors, on a clear night they have the moon light and some nights it can be very bright........and you only leave your fan in the room that criculates the are on for 1/2hour after lights out?? i leave mine on at all times so that the air in the g-room doesnt go stale and sit there, you want it circulating
