what about a 300 Watt White Halogen light those ne good?

I'm not for sure...but I dont think a "halogen" is a hps light :P. I could be wrong all I know is I never known it to be called that but it probably would be a good light to get (the one you were talking about). Btw justaseed thats a pretty useful link ^_^.

Halogen lights DO NOT WORK. they're the wrong spectrum and they give off more heat than any plant can handle.

[justaseed]

you cannot grow with halogen!!!
