Sounds like electrodes are too close to the bottom of the container. Ion tracks form in still water that tend downwards off one electrode and bend upwards near the other electrode. If anything gets in the way, silver plates out onto it. Stirring disrupts these ion tracks as well as doing other beneficial things for the process.
