[SOLVED]Conky won't go to background (bottom most layer)

I believe I've configured conky to send it to the back but it keeps covering up all my windows. When I first boot it will be in the bottom most layer for a little bit <5 min and then it starts to cover up all my windows. My config is below:

 Create own window instead of using desktop (required in nautilus)
own_window yes
own_window_hints undecorated,below,skip_taskbar
own_window_type override
own_window_colour brown
own_window_transparent yes

background no
maximum_width 200

# Use double buffering (reduces flicker, may not work for everyone)
double_buffer yes

# fiddle with window
use_spacer right

# Update interval in seconds
update_interval 1

# Minimum size of text area
minimum_size 350 800

# Draw shades?
draw_shades yes


draw_borders no
# Stippled borders?
# stippled_borders 8
# window.border_inner_margin 4
border_width 2


# Default colors and also border colors, grey90 == #e5e5e5
default_color white
default_shade_color black
default_outline_color white



# Text alignment, other possible values are commented
#alignment top_left
alignment top_right
#alignment bottom_left
#alignment bottom_right

# Gap between borders of screen and text
gap_x 10
gap_y 10

# Text stuff
draw_outline no # amplifies text if yes
uppercase no # set to yes if you want all text to be in uppercase
override_utf8_locale no
use_xft yes
xftfont Terminus:size=9
#xftfont Sans:size=8
xftalpha 0.8

text_buffer_size 1200
