Gavita® LED Clone Bar — 18W, 9000K, Daisy-Chain Up to 20 Units, 120-277V

Precision Cloning and Propagation Light Engineered for Healthy Early-Stage Growth

The Gavita® LED Clone Bar is purpose-built for cloning and propagation, delivering 35 µmol/s of precisely engineered 9000K spectrum light at just 18 watts. The 9000K spectrum is specifically formulated to support early plant development — providing the cool, blue-dominant light that promotes strong root initiation, healthy clone establishment, and compact early vegetative growth before plants transition to production lighting.

With daisy-chain capability supporting up to 20 units per run from a single circuit, the Gavita LED Clone Bar scales seamlessly from small nursery bench setups to large commercial propagation rooms. At 2.0 µmol/J efficiency and 120–277V input compatibility, this clone light delivers reliable, consistent performance with minimal electrical overhead across nursery and propagation operations of any scale.

Key Features & Benefits

• 9000K Spectrum for Early-Stage Plant Development: Blue-dominant 9000K output is specifically tailored to support root initiation, clone establishment, and early vegetative development — providing the spectral environment that optimizes propagation outcomes without promoting premature elongation or stage-inappropriate growth responses.
• 18W at 2.0 µmol/J Efficiency: Ultra-low 18-watt energy draw delivers 35 µmol/s output at 2.0 µmol/J efficiency, keeping energy overhead low even across large nursery areas running many units simultaneously on daisy-chain runs.
• Daisy-Chain Up to 20 Units: Connect up to 20 Gavita LED Clone Bars in a single daisy-chain run from a single electrical connection, enabling complete propagation bench and nursery room coverage without multiple independent circuit runs.
• 120–277V Wide Voltage Compatibility: Accepts standard North American residential and commercial grow facility voltages, making the Clone Bar compatible with a broad range of existing electrical configurations without additional hardware.
• Slim Profile for Compact Propagation Spaces: At 44" length and just 1.15" × 1.46" cross-section, the Clone Bar installs neatly above propagation trays, humidity domes, and cloning systems in the tight spacing of commercial nursery bench environments.

Who Should Use This

The Gavita® LED Clone Bar is designed for commercial nurseries, propagation operations, and indoor cultivators of all scales who need precise, reliable lighting specifically engineered for the cloning and early vegetative growth stages. It is particularly valuable for operations running large propagation rooms where daisy-chain scalability, energy efficiency, and consistent spectral precision across every clone position are critical to achieving reliable propagation success rates.

Per-unit power draw: 18W. Fixture dimensions: 44.09" L × 1.15" W × 1.46" H. Weight: 4.7 lbs per unit. UPC: 849969002317.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is 9000K spectrum preferred for cloning and propagation?

9000K is a high color temperature (blue-dominant) spectrum. During cloning and early propagation, blue-dominant light supports root initiation, encourages compact vegetative growth, and provides the spectral cues that stimulate early plant development without the red-dominant spectrum more suited to flowering — which can push clones toward elongated, stage-inappropriate growth before they are established.

How many Clone Bars can I daisy-chain together?

Up to 20 Gavita LED Clone Bars can be connected in a single daisy-chain run from a single electrical connection — making it practical to cover large propagation benches or entire cloning rooms without running multiple independent circuits for the lighting system.

What mounting height is recommended for cloning applications?

For most cloning and early propagation applications, a mounting height that delivers 30–50 µmol/s at the clone canopy is generally appropriate. Monitor plant response and adjust height as needed during the establishment phase — sensitive clone material may need slightly lower intensity early in the rooting process.

Is this fixture suitable for seedling growth as well as cloning?

Yes — the 9000K spectrum and consistent 35 µmol/s output make the Gavita LED Clone Bar suitable for seedling germination and early seedling development as well as vegetative clone establishment. Its gentle, spectrally precise output supports sensitive early-stage plant material across a range of propagation applications.

What electrical infrastructure does the Clone Bar require?

The Gavita LED Clone Bar accepts 120–277V AC input and draws only 18W per unit. At this low wattage, even long daisy-chain runs of 20 units draw only 360W total — placing minimal load on any standard commercial or residential circuit.
