If its not an incandescent light it might. Incandescent lights put out more heat than light, you will not be able to get it close enough to do much good, the plants will stretch trying to get to the light. If you promise to keep it just between us, I'll tell you what you might want to do. Promise? Ok. they have these flourescent lights, reading lamps, they use a 27watt compact floro bulb, Costs about $20.00 on sale, I bought mine at Menards. When I first started growing I had a couple of plants I called my oddball plants. I didn't have enough room for them because they were shorter so I used one of those reading lights for just those two plants, this is after transplant so they were in full size pots just like the one you see here. You can ask Hazy Eyes, he can tell you, it is growing under just that light. I would venture to say that you could put ten seedlings under that light for the next week or two, no problem. And you can get it right on top of the plants so they won't stretch. The cola you see in my Avatar is one of the oddball plants, I think I made a smart decision. Remember you promised not to tell anyone about this, heres a picture of it. VV:blsmoke:
PS. The roses ain't doing too bad either.
