If you grow a in soil - then you water wrong. Soil need wet/dry cycle on constant repeat. Plants dont grow in swamps. I did grow under table light, was fun project, but pitty result. Better invest into good light ... growdiaries.com/diaries/154077-grow-journal-by-asnoriu

A "normal" (aka incandescent)light bulb produces more heat than usable light and is a poor lighting choice. Granted a seedling needs very little light but a CFL or LED would produce less heat. I would also say you are probably watering too aggressively for a plant that barely has any roots yet.
