Stop all application of the product. Give the lawn a rest period
(several months). And as mentioned, test the soil (after that).


Yes...good point to delay that until at least a significant fraction of
the existing application is gone.

I'll note as it's convenient here another observation--

If, as the OP says the grass was deeply yellowed and the broadleaf
components were strongly showing stress as soon as the next morning and
the temperature is only in the 80's they rate of application imo was
definitely _way_ over the recommended. That's just too quick a response
otherwise.

Didn't by any chance do other treatments on top of this at the same time???
