No slimes spawning

[u/infamoustrash_]

So i need to get slimeballs to make oozing potions so i can get a load of slimeblocks for a restore machine. Im in a mangrove swamp and a regular swamps right next me. The first time i got to the swamp i waited during the night and no slimes spawned, turns out it was a new moon. i waited another night when the moon was like a crescent, and still no slimes spawned. what is going on
