What type of light is that. If it is an incandescent, then no it won't.

You need a cfl or HID light.

i suppose it will work but you won't get the best of results, i think keico is referring to the bulbs' spectra, but hey it looks like it's already set up and you're gonna try it anyway

That looks like an incandescent. If it is then it's not going to work very well at all IMO... I'd use CFL's for vegging. Maybe 2 "bright whites" and 1 "soft white". You can get CFLs a lot closer without getting too hot. If you keep the bulb you're using you're going to get a lot of stretch.

The plant stretched to get closer and when it did her leafs were scorched.

no biggie, just a rookie mistake . With CFL's you can get them a lot closer without burning them since CFLs don't put off a lot of heat. They're especially efficient for seedlings too.
