Evened out lineup, should be more equal light coverage now.
Hoping that will cure the 1/3 that was acting up.
Roughly 24inches to from canopy to light

I would look into making a scrog net for your setup here man! You could spread the branches out more evenly under it.
I made mine out of pvc pipe, screws and weedeater line! 
You will maximize your yeild by pulling those taller branches down and making them level with the shallower ones! 
I made mine have different leg sizes also, 18,20 and 24 inch! legs aren’t glued like the rest of the net, so i can take them out and use different heights for different types! Taller for more sativa dominate!
This is two different plants in same net, one on the right more sativa dominate then the other on the left!

Would a trellis net do the same thing? If not I can def make one like you did!

It could, but i like the style of mine with the higher tension from the weed eater line! I can slide the line around the accommodate branches that just reach, and tie them together for stubborn ones! I weave them like a big tennis racket!

I should mention do not weave the stems in the net. Just continually tuck them under till you get around 1/3rd the size you ultimately want the plant to be then flip the light to 12/12

I do like the idea of the higher tension.. will test the trellis tmmw and update whether it’s what I need or not, thank you for the idea!!!

Here is some pictures of the one i made for that grow!
I either top my plants or bend them now a days before the net!

This will work but you may need to raise it a little, so you can tuck those tops under the screen.
Do not bend if they feel to stiff, or like you ar putting to much tension on the branch.
I have had some snap on me because of this. They were hollow inside.
@merlin44 is a great mentor for this! Maybe he could offer some advice?
If you got those 6 main big branches bent down under the screen, you would increase your tops so much!!

Thank you for the tag and the vote of confidence.
I read a few of the posts and it looks like you have given excellent guidance.
You are a mentor to folks delving into LST and SCROG.
I will add that I am not a fan of defoliation (except in special circumstances). Most folks defoliate to varying degrees but I don’t unless airflow is inhibited.

I have my full grow using this screen i built and the plants i posted under the post When life gives you 
's if you want to check out journal and see how much tucking and stuff i did to achieve over 130 tops, over 1lb from 2 plants in a 3x4 area!

Whoa 
I’ll check that out!

Hopefully the orientation is correct when this posts but if not oh well, took my light off the recipe setting for my VIVOSUN app.
A homie showed me that I should drop light intensity and tweak the distance between canopy-to-light.
Going to start raising the light accordingly to how they all react to this new system. Day to day most likely.
Crazy signs of improvement.. a week ago I was getting nervous. Couldn’t figure out why they were looking “burnt” especially the tips of fan leaves (wasn’t a water issue or a nute issue, for my second real grow I was clueless on how to diagnose that issue.)

It’s not but we can make it work.

Light 50% @ 18inches from canopy. Moved the girls around to see if it would make a difference in development. Oh boy it did!
Learning to move them around more instead of keeping them in one spot their whole lives.
11/1-11/14 I will change light to 65% @ 18inches from canopy.

Building my SCROG net today, thank you @Strungthru for the knowledge and idea of how to make the net!
Already built the frame using an old laundry hamper made out of PVC pipes.
It’ll be roughly 26X26 so that’s more than ideal for my 3x3 tent.
I hope… only one way to find out!

She’s bursting at the seams! 
But seriously… should I transplant them to bigger homes? Figured I could get away with the 2 gal pots. Other plants roots are reaching through the bottom as well.
Too heavy to lift up and get a pic of 
Your screen frame top looks great!
I measure down the side of each rail starting at one corner and drill a screw into the top of the pipe 3 inches apart from each other, tie the string around ine of the corner screws and just start stringing it up!
I weave the line like a tennis racket, and when i get done weaving i pull the slack out of each run to where it snug and then tie it off at the end of the net!
This is the line im currently using. I bought it becuase it was bright yellow and i was doing a lemon strain run. But, this is a bulk version and will last me a while lol
