Filament Uneven? Poor Adhesion?

See picture, wondering what to try next. 

Did a full calibration, cleaned the hotbed with acetone, nozzle is clean, at least externally, using Prusa Filament and its beading up and catching. 

Thanks in advance for your assistance!

RE:

What is the filament?

Acetone is not suitable for regular cleaning, it is useful after a few hundred prints have left residues on the print sheet.

Clean the sheet with dishwashing detergent (Dawn/Fairy) and plenty of HOT water, rinse well and dry with a fresh paper towel. Handle by the edges only.

Then run a first layer calibration and if you are unsure show us a picture of the resulting print *on the print sheet*.

Cheerio,

RE: Filament Uneven? Poor Adhesion?

How does the internal Z calibration print (zig-zag rectangular lines and single solid square) look?

In particular, do the beads have a nice oval shape, and does the square show nice even strokes?
