any update on this experiment halo?

Thanks for all of the help so far. I have "potted up" the affected plants, which ended up being five. I have one more question if anyone is still paying attention to this thread. Would it be effective to dilute the nitrogen content of the soil in the raised bed by pulling it out and mixing...

I'm not certain, but I believe the Scott's bag did say that it feeds for some period of time. If this is the problem, is there anything I can do to neutralize the nitrogen? If not, I assume at some point this problem would go away naturally, right? Of the 10 causes listed by Potawie above...
