If the light is burning your plants why don't you just move the light further away? What kind of light is it, how hot does it get? Did you do the arm test?

As for the burnt leaves...if they're completely burnt and about to fall off anyways I'd say go ahead and pull them off. But if they're still green I'd leave them.
 
the light bulb is a 75 Watt bulb i believe and its 120v i think, the letterings kinda faded on the bulb. heres pix And i put my hand under the bulb it was throwing heat out i thought it was ok i had a fan going at the same time with the bulb

What kind of light bulb is that? :confused:

As for the heat, when you test it with your arm, if it's too hot for your arm it's too hot for your plants.

it also looks like you are over watering your plant. are you useing any nuts? if you want a light bulb go to lows and they got a indoor light bulb that holds 75 and the other one 120 or somthing like that. for around $12
