PLA first layer

I have only used PLA so far and I am struggling with more then half my prints on the first layer.When the first layer prints parts of that layer are not sticking to the bed. I only use the gold textured plate and have struggled with this for a while. It either damages the first layer enough that it looks bad or it fails since the head hits the raised part that is not sticking to the bed. This has happened with a brand new head in the P1S so Im thinking this is a settings issue. Any one else struggling with this

Sounds like an adhesion issue. Clean your plate and try slowing down the first layer to 40 or 50mm/s and also the first layer travel speed to 500 or so.
