Question about Brandon Cedar (Thuja Occidentalis)

[BrettF]

Hi there,

I have 8 brandon cedars in my yard about 4' tall that I planted about 2-3 years ago. I just noticed upon taking a closer look that the leaves aren't a nice healthy green, but almost a white green. They are also crispy, if I touch them they crumble. I am wondering why all 8 of them are doing this, some have healthy green patches but all of them have a large portion of the green crispy leaves. I am also wondering if there is any way to save the branches since they are still green. I will post some pictures shortly.

Any help or information would be greatly appreciated!

Healthy green area on bottom left, crispy leaves on the rest of the tree

Easily crumbles when touched

if you freshly shifted to the ground then wait and kindly care about water and pH of the soil
