Know before you buy
No, this fixture is specifically engineered for propagation, clones, and microgreens. Its 4000K spectrum and 30W output are optimized for early-stage development rather than the high-intensity light required for flowering or fruiting stages.
Yes, the fixture is daisy-chainable, allowing you to link multiple units together to cover larger propagation areas. This makes it a scalable solution if you plan to expand your cloning setup in the future.
The Propagator 2 is a non-dimmable, plug-and-play fixture. It is designed for straightforward, consistent operation without the need for complex external dimming controls.
A single bar provides an ideal cloning footprint of 2' x 4'. Because it uses a passive-cooled design, it delivers uniform light distribution across that entire area without the need for noisy fans.
The Propagator 2 produces a total output of 55 PPF using 132 Samsung LM301B LEDs. It serves as an efficient, full-spectrum white light alternative to traditional 80W T5 fluorescent systems.
