Comment on First time with PETG. Is this calibration, wetness or something else?

Double-check the print temperature, PETG should be about 240-ish. Also the spiral vase mode may be the issue if your model isn’t designed for it. Also check your z offset, the first layer should be almost a flawless sheet… if not, stop the print and try again while live adjusting the z until it’s correct. Typically PETG doesn’t like to be squished down as much as PLA.

Update: replaced the nozzle, heat block (heating element, sensor, PTFE) and fan duct. Did two new temp towers:
Left tower is 235 (top) to 260 (layers labeled 280-260 are all 260). Right is 220-240.

I definitely feel like 220 is the right temp for this.
I’ll try the bunny again, the model is designed for vase mode, so it should work!
