    I am trying to block the 18MG on some of the rows so people cannot enter information.  Can we have it blacked out?  or an "N/A" option?

    Unfortunately no. You cannot apply condition rules that can be specific only to a cell in the Matrix table.

    Usually the workaround used is by using a separate Textbox field (outside the matrix table) or use another Matrix table with only single column (just for the purpose of having a separate textboxes)

    OR

    You may want to try using Spreadsheet Widget as an alternative to Matrix table.

    The spreadsheet widget will allow you to have control on the cell contents. You can assign a default value to the specific cell address.
