We have two raised beds with ivy at the back suppossedly climbing a
trellis. They have gone through the trellis and are growing down the
other side into a field. None of the plants are doing well in these
beds. Is it because of the ivy releasing something into the soil.

Assuming it is - do we add soil or remove soil or wait (until next
year) The ivy's days are numbered!

Well, it isn't. It may be because the ivy is depriving the plants
of water, but that is a different matter.
