Just a few suggestions, perhaps try changing out the bottles? New water mixture? one more drop of fertilizer? Let the cycle go for a couple more days before harvest?

I too have experienced this, yet alll seems to be well (or I have just gotten used to it and think its alright now! :icon_surp

The phyto is using up all it's available CO2 and then it runs out and can't use the remaining amount of fertilizer. You have to add CO2 to the culture if you want denser stuff. It's likely your place had a fair amount of CO2 when you started your culturing, but now it's a low for whatever reason. The fact is the air in a home will always have varying CO2 levels so with just straight air injection you will have varying phyto culture results.
