I'm sorry for the delay.

To add hydrogens you should use ReadySet!  which uses Reduce for the 
protein and RNA/DNA portions of your model.  For other molecules such as 
ligands it uses eLBOW.

phenix.ready_set model.pdb

will generate a file model.updated.pdb which contains the hydrogens.  
ReadySet! also performs some other tasks to prepare your model for 
refinement.

I assume it came from water molecules because it(huge gap) just starts to happen after 1_bss stage. If anybody can suggest a good way to get over this problem, you will save my tremendous times and useless efforts.
