Nute confusion

Hello Everyone,

I am in the beginning phases of my first coco grow. I had some nutrient issues in the beginning but now have corrected with some education on EC and an EC and PH meter.

So my question is now that I am paying attention to EC, my nutrient solution consists of:
Cal/Mag - Tap Water or Distilled (depending on what stage of growth) - Jacks Orchid Special 30-10-10.
Reading target EC for later stages of veg cycle is upwards of 1500.
The instructions on Jacks says to add 1/4Tsp for continuous growth solution. The problem is this only adds an EC value of 50 to whatever solution I add it too.
So since plants require up to 1500 in later stages of veg should I be adding nutes until I see this number?
Even when I have full dose of Cal/Mag with Tap water and 1/4Tsp of Jacks I am getting around 1.1k EC. Should I be adding in more Jacks?

Thanks in advance.

Currently plants are 13 days old. But this question is for plants later in the veg state. Just curious so im not scrambling when the time comes.
