Maybe if you mix some Perlite and peat moss to your soil or just Perl, peat and vermiculite together. Always flush out your soil now and then when needed and you dont want too much humidity. Your plant would need Fertilizer to keep it healthy and fresh clean water. So you need the right stuff. Its pretty easy when you get doing it.

Get some saucer plates for your plant. Drip trays. The exact size for your pot. When you flush and drain, do it inside a bigger bucket. When I water, i do it inside a bigger drip tray.
