Prusa slicer creates choppy organic supports in some spots

Hello, everyone, 

 

i'm a new convert to the Prusa slicer, coming from Cura. i use exclusively organic supports as i  find they fill my needs better overall. i'm currently struggling with making the organic supports sturdier, as they often break off  half way  through, messing up the entire print, overall very similar issue to https://forum.prusa3d.com/forum/assembly-and-first-prints-troubleshooting/how-do-i-prevent-organic-supports-from-failing/ .

One  thing that i have noticed with prusa is that at some places it makes some odd decisions about the shape of the trunk (in pictures).

Usually i wouldn't mind this too much as i would trust the printer to either bridge this " offset" by itself or the rest of the trunk supporting itself well enough where it isn't much of an issue, but with the amount of trouble that i'm having constantly, i'm grasping at straws.

For overall strength there are other things i can try, but at the very least i would like to have a clean file to test any changes that i made.... for examples of other things that i can try is the plastic might be of shoddy quality, so i have some new ones arriving in a few days, i also have set the extrusion for supports to 0.45 ( i did it now, i haven't tested it before) and i have also set it to quality setting so the printer would go slower and finer in hopes of giving it more time to do things right.

note: yes i know that 0.1 is excessive especially for the size and lack of fine detail regarding the model, but again, im just throwing everything at the wall to see what sticks.

I'm also attaching the project file as is expected.
