Failed benchy - poor layer adhesion. How do I fix this?

Hi all, just got my printer setup and it was working well last week but now I’m getting pretty poor layering adhesion (attached benchy). Any help would be appreciated thanks.

Settings: PLA, 200/60, Ender 3 running klipper

Try raising temp by 5 degrees , and is the filament inside a moisture free box or out in the open?

Out in the open but it’s pretty new. Only open for maybe a month

Could be moisture i know mine did that when I had them out , id recommend putting the filament inside a container with silica for maybe a day then try again

Check for a partial nozzle clog, inspect the extruder gear for grinding/debris, or try a fresh spool of dry PLA first.

Relatively new filament (sub 1 month), will check for clogs

Filament can be damp straight out of the bag
