My friend has been growing outdoors, her plant is 3months old and has hit early flowering. She's running into a couple issues and asked me to post and ask, so what do you guys think? I told her she may have a nutrient deficiency but Im really not sure, (im growing indoors for first time) so I am unfamiliar with outdoor growing. She said shes giving no nutes and has barely been watering her. Also when i was checking out her plant I noticed she had aphids. Looks like thats what caused some of the hole in her leaves. Pics below, thank you!
Edit: she also seems to be going in and out from veg to flower stages.

First...what's with the 'my friend asked me to post this for her'? if it is true...your friend is either a major paranoid or too damn lazy to do her own research.

The plant has magnesium issues and obvious critter damage, and has IMHO been under watered (droopy leaves with slightly curled edges). If she is growing outdoors and is using natural sunlight...how can she be going in and out of flower? Days lengthen for months and then shorten for months...not weeks, days, or hours, shortening of daylight hours is what induces flowering.

Hey, I know a few peeps that still carry beepers! TBH, I can only speak to what I can see in the pic and general cannabis knowledge. I do not have the privilege of living in a free thinking state where I can grow a plant outdoors without fear of consequence, and must abide by the rules of neo Nazi fascist pigs. You may want to post in the outdoor growing forum.

Get a cilantro plant planted next to it(Counter Planting). Then make a tea with the leaves and mist the Canna. Spider mites will flee. And/or topsoil some insect frass in and get the plant defending it self better.

Sounds like some sound advise, I'll pass it along, thanks bro!
 
well she's a woman so first you should calmly direct her back to the kitchen and say "there there dear" and "may i have a sandwich" etc. then advise her to leave outdoor work to the men and not to worry her pretty little head about such things.
I hoep this advice has been helpful, let me know if you need more tips about woman (she would like just the tip. probably)
