Hi guys, novice gardener here ! This is my first year with bay trees, they have been great in the pot but out grey them so this weekend I planted them in my beds but noticed some spots on the leaves which I’m unsure what they are ? It’s in the same place as the potted one with same soil and feed etc .i
they don’t look too bad but would like to address it sooner if it’s an issue. Can anyone advice me what these are or how to deal with them ? Many thanks

If you can give a pic from further out, and some more info, that will help. The usual stuff -what they were grown in, and where they've been growing in terms of exposure. General location/climate etc always helps.
Unfortunately, this forum is being shut down next week, but hopefully someone will be able to help you before that happens
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
A one-off treatment with sequestered iron should fix it.
It's usually a condition that creeps up, so the cause may have been a lack of available iron in the pots which is only now showing and most likely.
They may well sort themselves out now they're in the ground. so you could wait and see or try the sequestered iron
