You don't need to flush with PHed water. PH your calmag/nute water going in to about 6.0-6.2. As you water with the PHed nute water the roots will grab the nutes at the lower PH level, as the water sits in the soil, the PH will rise because the soil is buffered. Whatever you do, don't chase runoff PH.

That should help! The damaged leaves probably won't recover, but they shouldn't get much worse, and the new growth should be normal.
