I think if the compression ring that fits on the valve stem and against the rim is plastic, then you have a tube inside. If it was tubeless, the ring would be steel or brass so you could tightened it tightly to compress the rubber seal inside.
It could be just air escaping from between the tube and the rim. I would watch it for a few days to see if the leak stops or if the air bubble changes to liquid escaping then for sure you have a leak.
When you put in the liquid ballast, did you put a jack under the tractor to keep the tire from squashing down flat. If you didn't, you may have pinched the tube when deflating the tire so you could add liquid.
