Exact same symptoms here.   

For me, it printed fine on textured PEI for weeks then started making the stalagmites like you show for the last few days.  So I cleaned off the sheet with  alcohol (Not Acetone), but no improvement.  I've played with Z-Live adjust, but can't see any improvements.  Haven't been able to get a successful print since it started 🙁

Did you get any improvement by adjusting the Z-Height?  If so, did you need to go closer to or further from the plate?

Have you also changed the printer profile to 0.6mm nozzle as well?
