Anyone else getting concerned with the non deterioation of the weed barriers around their trees? As my trees are growing I'm getting concerned with the plastic actually girding my trees! I was told intially by the NRCS office that the plastic was to break down and be a non issue in five to ten years due to sunlight breaking down the fibers. I just don't see much happening. I have put a bunch of work into getting these trees growing to date and I'm getting worried. I'm think about ripping my weed barriers out. Anyone else done the same? If you did what was your mode of removing them?
