AEK ----- do you have drainage holes at the bottom of your clear-plastic pot? I assume there are holes there - just can't see them that's all.
If you have good size drainage holes at the bottom, then also consider putting most of the water down the sides of the pot. Sort of like shown here ----- where the diagram shows scoria media, but it will be workable for your media too.

Don't focus on those exact details of the drawing. Also, the pot dish is for nothing more than to catch/gather any water that exits the pot during watering. And that collected water is just meant to disappear (after it evaporates).
And - even though nutrient and element deficiency don't appear to be an issue here ...... make sure to occasionally (eg. once a month or twice a month) ------ apply weak fertiliser and weak mag-cal treatment. Relatively weak application. Not strong.
