Shannon, Did you first and foremost make sure that your developer was well
mixed? Just because you start with a liquid developer doesn't mean that you
don't need to mix it up. I had a bad experience with someone that used one
of my darkrooms years ago. He made some HC110 to process some film and
complained that his film was thin, but he marked it up to under exposure. We
went to process some of our enlarged negative materials and every thing was
extremely weak. I soon noticed that the color in the bottle was not
uniformed and the difference was not shadowing but rather that it was not
fully mixed. Shook the bottle and WOW! Back to expected results. We even
trimmed the dilution a little to compensate for poor mixing.
Now, you may not have done that, but I hadn't seen anyone else throw that at
you as a possible problem.
