Default Put partially decayed wood mulch on garden -- Nitrogen?

I've put a quantity of partially decayed wood mulch into my garden

Only briefly, and then the nitrogen gets releasaed again.

If so what might be the most reasonable corrective action
I could take?

Have you seen signs that the plants are not thriving?
