I got some useful advice from some other forum users on what to do and i’d like some help calibrating my vertex. here are some pictures of the latest print and the link to the calibration cube i’m using. Any help is appreciated!

Look´s like you not print with a Vertex 
I think you have a problem with the temperature. Your fan´s turn in the right way ?
try to print slower and try to print 2 of the objekt same time.
on the quality of your PLA there is probably not - I myself have no good PLA because i print 99% ABS
Hi, so i tried printing at a slower speed, made sure my fan was on and spinning the right way (in my repetier software it was being set to zero) and this is what I have now. Unfortunately I have cats and I can’t find my previous prints to compare it but I have pictures.

Any advice on what to do next really helps.
Set the parameters to :
Temperature : 190° (PLA) - 220° (ABS).
Flow : 75%
Shell thickness + top/bottom : 0.6 mm
Infill : linear - 30-40% - overlap 10%
Retraction : 3 mm - 150 mm/s
Activate the “cool head lift” option.
Hi, thanks for all the advice! I finally got nice prints! My PLA that i was using needed to be at 210-220 and I tried different slicer settings and its working now! I’m printing a fan extension to cool the print better so i can print at higher temperatures since my printer likes to fluctuate temperature sometimes (sometimes below the melting point of my plastic!) but thank you thank you thank you for all your help!
