Drops of moisture on leaves?

[msdt]

Hi all,
I have noticed something unusual on my plants. Occasionally, I see drops of clear moisture on leaves that are higher up on the plant.

I have tasted these drops and there is no taste. At this stage, I am growing using a hydroponic system. BUT, it would be absolutely impossible for drops to appear on the plants.

Has anyone seen what I am seeing??

Guttation is most likely occuring, this often happens when the root zone is very saturated with water. The plant can force water to secrete out of the pores in order to relieve pressure.

Very interesting, never knew that..

When I have leaves laying on each other I get condensation on them sometimes.. maybe this is what im seeing and it's not condensation.
