with 6/12 a "day" is 18 hours, instead of 24 hours
so every day you save six hours... every four days, you gain a day.
in 28 days, you would gain a week (7 days)
so if the plant finishes that much faster, that's less time that you'd have your HPS's blaring and your electricity dial spinning like a turbo frisbee.
