you think i should replant it and maybe put some small stones etc. in the bottom of the pot to help with drainage....
I know it's counter-intuitive, but stones or other coarse material in the bottom of a pot actually impede drainage rather than help it. That's because water doesn't move from finer to coarser material until the finer material is saturated, so it creates what is called a "perched water table". I actually tested this myself once years ago and a pot filled only with potting mix retained 105 ml of water per cup of mix whereas a pot the same size and with the same mix over a drainage layer (of polystyrene packing peanuts) retained 135 ml per cup of mix. So it's better for drainage to have the same mix throughout the pot.
