Leave it for now. Water it well, then let it get somewhat dry before watering again. You can stick your finger, or a chop stick, into the soil to see how damp it is at the bottom. You want it to be as damp as a wrung-out towel, but when you do water it, you want to give it enough water that it runs out of the drainage holes for a minute or so. In other words, flush it with water.

Hope this helps!
