The PLC6 is a very good light. The difference in output is within 10% of each other. The HLG-550 uses around 120 watts less but isn't waterproof like the PLC-6. You won't go wrong with either one.

HLG over PLC based on customer service alone. The performance numbers don't have PLC in the same league as the HLG products either.


Why is it even a discussion here anyhow? HLG is a site sponsor, PLC isn't one.
As I've mentioned before I don't care who's a sponsor and who's not. This is what I love about rollitup. They go with what works not just with who's paying them. There's another forum who promoted the Mars brand and bigged it up like it was top notch but we all know Mars is cheap junk. Sponsor or no sponsor let's stay true to the hobby we love without letting money control our purchases and decisions.

Well it is kind of insulting to HLG as a site sponsor to be compared to another vendor that not only has inferior product but is known to be difficult to deal with.

All I was pointing out.

Uh, no, you got the wrong person. But I am interested in who you think I am.

The drama on social networks is so entertaining!

Hey OP....I recommend that you read some of the rhetoric on this forum that has been generated by both companies in question and see which type of people you would want to deal with. Regardless of the differences between the two lights, there is a VAST difference in the attitude between the two company's representatives. I don't need to specify exactly what I'm referring to, here. Just have a look for yourself.

This is a marijuana grow forum. Not a company website ofr a place that acompany "does business" through.
Greengenes/tags420 has been here since well before any company currently on the list of top lights other than maybe Apache tech. And I don't play to any company marketing agendas specifically. Just truthful and fact based information and honest and complete grow logs.

If someone has a question about a light or a company...contact/email them. That is how you communicate with a company/person.

Highly recommend that you avoid the one that is known for the bad service.

Aside from the old technology and questionable business ethics, the big claim to fame is 12 years growing experience and a bunch of youtube videos of what they think is a good grow.

No formal education in any of the relevant sciences just some guy who thinks he can grow pot well. Might be fine for the 'bros' out there but serious people, go with something reputable.
