This is some Dessert Skunk from Khalifa grown on a windowsill and put outside 3 weeks ago. They are already flowering. Here are some pictures. Thanks for your help.

Sunburn
The windowsill was enough light to grow. When it went into full sun the leaves were not ready for the sun’s intensity. They are acclimating now and should grow out of the shock. In the future move the plants from the window sill to a spot with morning sun and filtered sunlight for 3-4 days. Give the plant time to adjust to outdoors.

I concur and all plants not just cannabis need time acclimating to new conditions especially when dealing with direct sunlight.

Thanks for your answers. Sunburn is probably right. I also think see signs of an iron deficiency.
The leafs turning yellow/white except for the veins that remain green could be a sign for iron deficiency (probably due to high soil-PH). This is according to the Cannabis Growers Handbook by Ed Rosenthal. As a cure he recommends foliar feed with Fe chelated fertilizer containing Fe, Zn, Mn. And of course the lowering of the PH. Iron is best dissolved around a PH of 6,0. Adding Rusty water also works.
They are the plants of a buddy, I have to ask him if he acclimated the plants.
The soil has a lot of organic matter (Compost). I’m not sure if my buddy has fed them but I don’t think so.

most are like gingers they do not like the full sun in the beginning they call it Hardening off kind of like dampening off seedlings when first sprouted removing the humidity to fast i use some dollar store shade cloth for a week it seems to help a bunch as no one has time or the memory to put them out and bring them in a few hours later
