Hello, I'm on my new homestead, and this apple orchard is already in. The trees were neglected for a year or so. The grass wasn't cut, no water, just ignored. So after getting the grass cut I found all the trees had that white plastic stuff wrapped around the trunks. It was tight on most of the trees and didn't look good. So I took it off. This is what I found under some of it. So I'm curious what is going on here and what if anything should I do? Thanks.
