It has to be of the right light spectrum for plants or it might just cook them or do nothing.

no writing on it anywhere? remember it has to be usuable light energy for the plant

That looks like an old street light, where did it come from? If it has a standard filament inside then I don't believe it will work.

I would pick up a few more CFLs, they're pretty cheap.
