Damn you Bob, I want this soil. WANT IT! Does it contain pearlite? Or does it need assistance as far as drainage?

Interesting, Tom - Someone will bang out an answer in no time. Unfortunately, I don't have a clue as to what the issue could be.. without pics that is.

Do you have enough drainage holes in the pots? Are they big enough? Does your soil contain pearlite or some other drainage supporter?
