I have a couple thoughts that you may take with a grain of salt since there are plenty of growers here with way more experience than me. First is that I think it is a mistake to concern yourself with trying to control runoff pH, or more accurately stated, the pH of your media. It's simply not your job. Your job to to insure the correct pH range going in and let the bennies & the plant take it from there. The media, and any beneficial microherd (bacteria, fungus, etc) and the plant must to be allowed do their thing, and will, much better than we can.
Regarding ppm, as a caveat, I've seen people running >2000 on sea salts, but that's a completely different thing. That said, with traditional nutes, an ec that high needs to be fixed before it adversely affects those transplants IMO. I have discovered readings that high myself in my res (passive wick) before, and the plants were "sub-optimal" for it - w/ toxicity/clawing, lockout, or disfigured leaves. Didn't kill them, but they were obviously not uptaking the nutes as much as the water and the res ec was becoming more concentrated over time. If this is what is happening, then the plant obviously just doesn't want or need that level of nutes. Why risk pushing toxic levels? There are plenty of exceptional results from running at 1.2-1.4 ec throughout the full cycle. Isn't overfeeding the #1 mistake most growers make?
If it were me, I'd flush until I hit that 1.2-1.4 range and then resume feeding the following day.
