300 watt draw yes it's too close - how often do you water ? Should be every 3-4 days and to runoff .

Yes definitely too close for a seedling I would back it of to some where between 24-36” depending on how focused the light is. Seedling s need very little light to get started. Best of luck going forward

For LED's the ideal distance varies from model to model. I would put it much farther while it's a seedling, 24 inches, if you see them stretching, then get them closer
