The Matrix FR 18W Far Red Bar is a targeted 730nm far-red supplemental light designed for crop steering, flowering initiation, and End of Day (EOD) treatments. Its narrow 730nm emission provides precise far-red photons for phytochrome conversion, while its IP66-rated construction and daisy-chain capability make it suitable for large-scale commercial deployment.
