This is one of my first grows and I was just wondering if this would be successful.. My seed is currently germinating.

Not even close unless you want to grow one very small plant. You'll need at least 4 more of the same lights and a 3-5 gallon container. I used 32 oz cups just to start mine in and they quickly outgrew those.

Actually, 3860 Lumens will do for a 1x1 square foot area, for just a small, two-footer cannabis plant mate.

You wanna shoot for 5,000 lumens per sq. foot in flower / 3,000 L in Vegg.

One square foot isn't much my friend, you might grow an 8th.
