Prusament PLA keeps streaking and curling off bed

Hi everyone!

i havent used my printer in a few months and then when i went to use it, i started getting streaks where the nozzle would lift off the bed to move to a different area but then some PLA will be left and its carrying over to a different area and then leaving little blotches. 
i changed the nozzle now and now trying different prusament PLA, and its still happening

is this a problem of over extrusion, or bed adhesion? It happens on both first layer and even at higher levels too (although not as much). 

what do i do?

i attached 2 pics. This is a minor example of it, but on the bottom right you can see it left a blotch.

Supports are difficult.  I suspect your Z offset of not perfect.
