Hiding a grow from someone you're living with is not a good idea for a number of reasons..

That being said if you put of some kind of reflective material inside the closet you can most likely elminate those light leaks with 'patches'

What I did:
I cut thick cardboard into 6" wide strips. The closet door opened outwards so I stapled the cardboard strips along the 2 sides and top so that the cardboard struck out into the doorway area, then nailed a 2" x 2" strip of wood at the bottom, on the floor going from left to right.
