I brewed Northern Brewer's extract kit - SH2B (Single Hopped Best Bitter) - yesterday and everything went well, but the original gravity was quite a bit below what the instruction sheet thought it should be.

The sheet said OG - 1.045 and my hydrometer reading came out at 1.029 (adjusted for temp at roughly 68).

Any suggestions as to why the reading is so low?
