Maybe.
A piece of tape over the lamp will work, or hang a piece of paper/cardboard over the controls so there's no direct light on the plant

Good luck

Depends on the led intensity. Like Hugo said, tape ( like electrical black tape ) or a piece of cardboard over the light should be enough to stop it from being recognized by the plant.
I've even read about plants that did not re-veg even under pole lights ( outside at night ), but not worth it to try your luck over those things. You're onto the right mindset, good luck mate.

Looks good. If your light has veg/bloom switches make sure both are on at all times

And consider upgrading to a quantum board in the future

My A/C has a real bright blue display and I used a piece of boxboard and tape to cover it. Green light is supposed to be safe for pot in the dark cycle but I cover those displays up too. I doubt your plants would notice one night of light from an a/c display.

Yeah, the so called blurples. Upgrade to a quantum board with white leds. More efficient and more effective. Good luck bro
