Street light preventing flowering

[zwh]

One of my plants (Papaya) seems more light sensitive than the other two (Skunk #1 and Pure Power Plant).
I think a nearby street light (20-30 feet away) that shines into my backyard is preventing her from flowering. The other two seem to be budding fine.

Anyone else dealt with this? Solutions?

Tarp or bags to cover plants at night time, maybe you can build a small greenhouse to make it easier and do some light dep next year. Street lights are a pain in the ass bro.

you could try to prune the fan leafs that are facing the streetlight if some kind of wall or cover isn't an option.

all i have found is block the light from hitting your plants street lights are a pain if one is hitting plants at night your lucky only one plant is noticably affected

used to have same

Used to have factory security light shining on to my green house .
I shot it out with a silenced air rifle.6 times cos they replaced it 5 times lol.
I guess with a street light you could open the panel n pull the fuse .
treat the cause not the symptoms

I'm going through the same problem. Looks like I will have lots of clones. I shot a light out 10 years ago. Then the power company showed up and replaced the bulb. My buddy said they said something about the plants so he got paranoid and pulled them up.

Shooting it would work, though I don't know how soon they'd be back to fix it. The light itself is intermittent and cycles on and off at night and they don't seem to care to fix that...
The covered greenhouse sounds good.. I wish I could design some automatic system so I didn't have to get up at 6am every morning though.

That sucks man..I got the same problem with a sativa leaning blue dragon...I was thinking about throwing some pvc hoops up and pull a tarp halfway over the hoops on the side of the street light...but finding a way to make it self automated would be ideal..lesson learned though the sativas can't be near a street light but the indicas seem unaffected...
