So I’m obsessed with shrimp plants. I love them so much, and I have failed 2 of them. I rescued this guy from the rains of July 3. He was super water logged. I repotted him, gave him a good mix of cactus and the dirt he had (which might’ve not been a good idea but I’m an aspiring plant lady). I’m not exactly rolling in the money. I did buy little nitrogen sticks so I popped one in there and he perked up for a minute and then he lost his largest shrimp. 😰
I’ve barely watered him because the dirt is still damp at the bottom and I read they don’t like to be wet. Also for a minute he had mushrooms growing out of the dirt but I got rid of them and haven’t seen them since.
Anyone familiar with these guys that could give advice?

Forgot to mention in post that he didn’t seem to like a lot of sun so I moved him to more indirect light which he just started growing a little shrimple. I have a north facing patio and I get so direct light to the right of my patio in the setting sun. So it’s more shade to part shade I get.
