This has happened twice in my game since installing the last game patch (Dec. 5, 2023). Both were out-of-season trees: a cherry tree that grew weeds, and an apple tree that had insects. On both occasions, it happened as my game was exiting a loading screen (I'm pretty sure that both were from loading a save rather than a travel related loading screen). It was not something that happened at 5 a.m. during regular overnight game-play.
As a workaround, I used the shift + click cheat "Set Gardening State" to alter their state.
The "Weed Free" option worked for me, but I think the "Mulched" option should also work. I realize that using the Shift + Click cheat is less than ideal, but it's something to consider until this bug gets fixed.

@candiecoatediv Do you remember in your game if the weeds sprouted overnight or if it happened after the game exited a loading screen, like it did in mine. For me, the weeds/ insects were not there on the last time I had played. They only randomly appeared on the next time I started the game and loaded a save. For this last one, it wasn't even morning in the game, it was late afternoon. It hasn't happened very often for me, like once last week and a second time earlier today. I don't even know if this detail is important, but it might help the devs recreate the bug, or to help them fix it.
