need some expert help

Hi Prusa team and rest of the forum

i am quite new to 3D printing,and aside from my problem (see below) i love the prusa printer !

i have a problem with the first layer, the strings are not wide enough to stick to the string beside it
(see attached photo link),this is PLA 1.75mm but i get the same result with ABS (sometimes even worse with ABS)

things i have done to try and remedy this:
* new xyz calibration - no problems at all here
* live Z adjustment is at -0.575 mm (at -630 the nozzle will scratch the bed)
it seems to become a little bit better if i decrese it more, but then i get the effect that the strings are overlapping and create "waves"
* i have an extrution multiplier of 1.1 currently in slic3r
* latest firmware flashed

is there anything else i can do ?

Very thnakful for some ideas and replies !
