NHR instability leads to the release of a steep power-law spectrum in the ejecta dominated phase no sharp cut-off! KASCADE Grande and ARGO data can be fitted with reasonable values of SN parameters. No model that can fit both ARGO and KASCADE-Grande data need a better data understanding with a consequent theory improvement. Type II SNRs can accelerate particles up to the knee at very early time detection problem. Bell non-resonant instability predicts that very energetic SNRs can reach PeV energies.
