This actually makes a little bit of sense... kinda. In food/flower storage and transportation it is well known that as vegetation "ripens" after picking it releases gasses which encourage the same chemical reaction in nearby vegetation.

People spend a lot of time and money avoiding this when dealing with certain fruits, expensive cut rose's etc.

I trim up in front girls that are still under the light and have never thought of it. I figure that as I dry in a separate area, exposure would be at a minimum.
