I would lay some of em(the taller ones) under the net or to the next net hole to get em all same height, it looks like you still have room and your canopy is a bit uneven. Keep in mind the point of scrog is to get an as perfect of an even canopy as possible. You may have started a little late for your amount of space to lay the net at that low of a height. If it looks like results would be better raise the net a little then lay em under. Just remember the goal is to have all the bud sites at the same height and while laying then horizontally under the net you will allow the lower budsite branches to get light and grow up to create even more bud sites at the same height as the rest.

Yeah you can tie em down, do whatever you can to get em all even. Idk if you can move the net up or not but if you went up on the net you could then get those guys under and you probably have a lot of growth coming(flowering stretch) soon if it hasn't started already, so you can take advantage of that to fill the net.

@Anon Emaus is right on everything. Like you said, they are probably getting to being too woody, but you can slowly tie them down a little more each day, just be very gentle. If you can even move them down 1/2" each day you should be fine to get it all trained by the 17-18 day window (which is when i stop training). I don't know if you are aware, but your plant is most flexible after watering. If you do snap one, don't worry, just tape it up and research supercropping.

yeah it does, thanks for the push lol it really has filled out alot, I was worried about it, it looks like they are getting max light, I'll post another pic in a week or so and so on until I harvest, the Super skunk is maturing it seems faster than the super skunk cross I have in the front, can't wait to see how it all turns out, I havery had no plant problems, maxibloom seems to be doing the trick, I'm using the kiss method

buds are getting frosty and starting to swell and everything is coming along nicely, I'm feeding maxibloom every 2 days and ph, water in between , I'm thinking of ordering some molasses here soon as a additive, the Super skunk cross with critical kush is way more dense and frostier, I've growed super skunk before, the buds get big as bottles lol Im hoping it does indoors as well so I can get a decent yield. here is a pic of the cetera from the front20160226_174036.jpg

Looking real good as far as the frost goes. Hows the super skunk cross smelling? Like a dead skunk like the oldschool skunk smell or not so much?

Thats gonna get frosty if you have four weeks still. Weeks 4-6 is when you see some serious frost comin around...and they bulk up nice. ;)
