If you put a Corvette LS engine into a Ford Tempo and try to go as fast as you can the wheels are probably going to fall off or you'll smash into a wall like a pancake. The same thing happens with your plants when you try to blast them with fancy new LEDs and you haven't taken the time to make sure your other variables are up to par. Lights are the primary driver for your plants needs which in this case is nutrients.
You should be using that light at 50% intensity at about 24" until you get your medium & nutrients sorted out and as you get a few grows under your belt with the light/nutrients you can start to increase the intensity.
Source? I am using a SF4000 and a SE3000 in a 5x2 closet(40% and 60% intensity respectively).
PS @MIGrampaUSA has given you some great advice regarding your medium. Get that sorted out and once you can improve your wet to dry times things should get easier.
