Plant had water + nutrients with low pH (~6 pH), leaves are now swirling downwards. Growing in soil. What can I do, that plants get healthy again?

I'm assuming you are indoors growing in soil then... you should get that PH up.

For hydro 6pH - no, but for soil - yes.

6 ph in soil could possibly cause some problems over time, but shouldn't devastate a plant after one watering. Lower ph in soil (over time) can cause magnesium and calcium deficiencies. You should post more pictures and information about your setup and problem.

Third day after flush and still looks bad. No heat spot, good pH7 water flush, what can be the problem? Bad genes?

With the clawing it could be an N toxicity. Those are in bad shape, I would flush 3 times the volume of water that your pot holds ( i.e 5 gal pot = 15 gal of water) or just flush until you have a PPM of under 150. Goodluck with those.

Only flushing can be the cure for this problem?
