Maybe not, if they are LED instead of incandescent bulbs. The color would not matter, but if they are LEDs, they might not draw enough power to produce much heat (not enough watts).
If the article that taught how to make DIY heating pads / boxes said how many watts are needed, you could compare the wattage on the package to that number.
I didn't see "Watts" or "equivalent watts" or "LED" or "incandescent" in the photos. If they are LEDs and the wattage is only specified as "equivalent", they mean the total brightness is comparable to an incandescent string drawing that many Watts of power. Ignore "equivalent Watts".
"Real" seed heat mats have wattages as low as 17 W, if they're for just one tray. Do the "tree light heat box" plans call for a thermostat to keep the soil from getting TOO hot?
