You should use LED lights that are specific for growing if possible. Different LEDs emit different wavelengths of light and plants need a certain combination of wavelengths. The light you are showing just has a blue colored glass bulb around it (like a party light) and probably a generic household LED diode inside. The colored glass will just limit the light the bulb emits and reduce it's effective output. White LED household bulbs will probably contain all the spectrum you need but not always and may not have the output you want for good growth.
 
I tried something like this years ago and it didn't work. You'll wind up spending more on led bulbs flood lights than led grow light would cost and it will only make the plant stretch because it's not enough light. Just my experience
