See you may have washed out crucial minerals doing that . I never water to get too much runoff in soil .

But like i say . You may he overtwaterijg . If it takes a long time for pot to dry out . Imho 2 days . Then your overwatering . Overwatering is just as bad as over feeding and underfeeding . Starves the roots for air and can cause disease
