No.. Halogen sucks man.. You can't have them close enough to you're plants, so, they'll strech MAJOR..

Get a HPS man.. Or MH.. Or even CFL.. Incadecent would even be better than halogen...

Later..

You can get those energy saving light bulbs now for growing. A lot less heat and lower electricity bill.

Post in basic growing you will get advice from plenty of
people that will help you out. But I recommend CFL's for
a first time grower they put out little heat use less energy
and fit in your common light fixture.

Halogen bulbs are not worth a fuck they do not have the
right spectrum for plant growth.

Halogens can really be a fire hazard for the indoors, dont use it indoors.
