Has anyone ever yielded more than Seedbank numbers?

Im sure it's better. More space is always more space. That is the number one factor when you aim for bigger yields. You can only have that many buds in m2.

Density is the only factor I can use to increase yields really...

I see people managing to get 1 oz per cola all over on here.
I wish I could have 4 colas per square foot and manage that!

Don't see what else I can change to increase that. It's not like I'm a new grower either.

I get around 2,6-2.8oz from 4 colas (1 plant) per one square foot. I do 100% organic soil so that might limit my yield. I have been growing for years and think this is a good yield. 4oz from 1 square foot / 12 weeks sounds impossible with organic soil grow..

That's about the same as I am getting now with my setup. I must be doing something wrong somewhere. With co2 and the amount of light I have I should be getting more then

If I remember correctly you don't need to worry about co2 if you are not doing +700w hps meaning with 600w hps extra co2 does nothing.

If you are getting 2,6-2,8oz / square foot I think thats a good yield with any kind of system. "Im doing something wrong" is kind of harsh statement. I guess you just need to study all the small nuances, keep your ears open and keep growing . After all it's way harder to get + 0,1 oz more when we are talking about very good yield already.

I don't use HPS I use custom build cob leds...

Hard to compare but I'd say I have the equilivant of 1500w hps per sq meter. Or better.

Yeah I'll keep messing with things and see if I can improve anywhere

I think 5 pound is definitely possible. Not possible in 11-12 weeks indoors but still possbile :) I have seen many plants that are way bigger than 8 x 8 tent.

I think I'm going to try that backbuilding technique on my next harvest...

It's a weird thing to do but that thread on it... the results speak for themselves.

It's where they cut off the top of the buds in week 3 of flower so that the buds grow out 2 new tops like stems do
