Hey there! I also had a similar issue with my 3D printer when I first started out. From my experience, this issue could be caused by a few different things.
One possible cause could be that your bed isn't leveled properly, causing the nozzle to be too close or too far away from the bed in certain areas. Another possible cause could be that your filament isn't extruding consistently, which could be caused by a clogged nozzle or a problem with your extruder.
To fix this issue, I would recommend starting with leveling your bed and making sure that it is completely flat. You could also try adjusting your nozzle height to make sure that it is the correct distance away from the bed.
If that doesn't work, you may want to try cleaning your nozzle or checking your extruder for any clogs or issues.
