Soil not retaining water

Hello,

What can you do when you water a plant and the water seems to just drain right through the soil?

I do let it get a little too dry sometimes, which I am working on. The problem is when I water it it seems like most of the water just drains right out the bottom of the pot..
 
Thats fine man. You want soil with good drainage. Just means it will get dry faster and require watering A BIT more often. If you really wanted to you could add in some more firm soil but honestly as long as the soil has a good nutrient level its not a problem.
