Ceestyle is right bro. Halogens are a no no. Way too much heat and not effective. I been reading up on CFL's (Compact Flouresent Lamps) and it seems a good way to go unless you can afford the HPS and or MH Lamps. I just purchased some CFL's this morning at walmart pretty cheap. 7 dollars for a 2 pack. They are 26 watt, 1600 Lumens and 6500k. They don't get hot and it's cost effective. Your light bill won't go thru the roof like it may with the HPS and or MH. Now you will need like 6 per plant I think (or close to that) to get good light coverage then when your ready for flowering I think you want to switch over to something more like 2700k-3200k. I'm in nooooo way a veteran grower, as a matter of fact this is my first grow but the info i have gotten back from these awesome people has set me in the right direction. I hope this may of helped some bro and best of luck!!! May yer buds be sweet and strong!!!
