ppm - parts per million , shows how much of your soil is fertilizer , the NPK is just what % nitrogen phosphorous and potassium is in the fertilizer

if your PPM is to high then your plant will take in to much and will result in burn and most probably a lock out from salt build up from all the unused fertilizer .
again not the best guy to be telling you this cuz i used lime to balance mine since am organic my ppm and PH are pretty manageable. i don't even have the meters , well i have the ph but not ppm but haven't used the ph meter in forever

Looks similar but I did flush for about over a week and 1/2 and gave no nutes at all. I have cut them in half since then as well. I was told with organic nutes, it is hard to burn with nutes? is that not true? Thanks for your help

am .. as an organic farmer ad have to dis agree. but then it depends what kind of organic nutes your using . if they come in a bottle they are prolly not that organic (at least that's what i believe cuz of what i have seen but thats a really opinionated statement ) but if you mix compost/ manures in your soil and use microbes to balance it out , burns be come almost impossible. i think the problem you might be having with organic nutes might be deffs if you didn't mix well or didn't supplement well
