FloraFlex® RetroFit Far Red LED Grow Light Pair
The FloraFlex RetroFit Far Red LED Grow Lights are designed to replace bars 3 and 6 on the FloraFlex 700W LED system, enhancing the far-red spectrum for improved plant growth, flowering, and photosynthesis efficiency. These LED bars integrate seamlessly into existing FloraFlex lighting setups, allowing growers to unlock the full potential of far-red wavelengths without overhauling their system.
Engineered with top-tier LED chips, including Osram 6.24, the RetroFit Far Red bars deliver a powerful 289 µmol/s PPF output with 3.3 µmol/J efficacy, ensuring maximum energy efficiency. To prevent light burn, we recommend a hanging height of 18-24 inches above the plant canopy.
By incorporating far-red lighting, these bars stimulate the Emerson Effect, increasing photosynthetic activity and enhancing bud density, terpene profiles, and overall plant health. Ideal for commercial and home cultivators, the FloraFlex RetroFit bars offer plug-and-play installation, ensuring an effortless upgrade to your existing 700W LED system.
