ppms too low, HELP!

[pewdiepot 1]

this is probably in the wrong area but it wont let me select a different category.

ive been using plant magic old timer and my ppm is at 186 for my solution, this seems wrong, cause it should be getting 900 in flower right? my ppm pen isn't x10 cause ive checked other things that go up to 1000ppm and above. Please help!! 

this happened after a week of flushing cause i thought it was too much nitrogen,, turns out i been starving them and its a deficiency caused by one feed per week. (ive since found out plang magic should be used every watering)

how can i raise my ppms to 900 if my solution is only 300 at most? shitloads of molasses? 

thanks in advance for the replies

my water reads 77 ppm this seem like a good reading?

Sorry mate... I dunno why that might be... are you posting with a phone or laptop?

Old-timer nutrients don't read properly on an ec/ppm meter as most of it's an organic base that doesn't conduct like metal salts do.
