I created the main body of this tree using a cylinder, and when i created it i left the 'smooth' box checked(see image), which give the shadows around it a smooth gradient. Then i created branches from the tree using extrude and these branches don't have the same smoothing between polys. Is there a way to select these polys and turn on smoothing?

Either put them into the same smoothing group or a apply a Smooth modifier.

It's shading btw, not shadows.
