no.. you dont wanna do that either.. i don' think that you had mentioned what kind of lights that you are growing with, but if you are using cfl's, you will want to keep your plants as close to them as possible.. this is a common problem with seedlings and cfl's.. you have to keep them super close to the lights for them to grow well, and at the same time they grow soo damned fast at this stage..
if you don't already have one, get yourself a nice fan and point in over the top of you plants, a circulating fan works good as it is not blowing on the plants non stop.. the fan does two things for you.. the breeze will help to strengthen your seedling and the fan will help to disapate any heat build up..
i wouldn't stress that lil bit of burn you have there, not too bad at tall really.. just gotta be on top of your babies at this stage and move them several times a day if need be.. not always the easiest thing to do if you have a job and all, but really no way around it, but a lil fan does help out..
best of luck getting that baby to harvest...
