Would a heat bulb be good for vegetation stage and can i start 12 hour stage while still vegetation stage.
No, a heat bulb is not good at all. I would suggest that you do some reading up on what the plant needs to be grown indoors. There are only certain types of lights that work well for growing--don't fall for the "grow bulb" hype. A lot of these are not actually meant to help the plant grow, but just to make it look good. You also need a different spectrum of light for vegging and for flowering. You are going to need a special place set up to grow that you can control the environment. You will need ventilation. This will cost some money. Do you have a designated space and do you have some money to spend to set this up?
While it is possible to put a plant still vegging into 12/12, it is counterproductive. The plant will not flower until it is sexually mature. If you put the plant into 12/12 while still vegging, you are depriving it of 1/2 the light it should be receiving. It will stretch rather than grow. By that I mean the plant will get taller, but will not put on any more bud sites. You often end up with a scraggly spindly plant with few bud sites.
