Soil won't drain it's like clay!

Hey guys
So I'm doing an out door grow ATM with rich premium soil. Everything is running smoothly. I have a seedling in the same stuff and it's growing good. I wanted to try some perlite in the mix so I done a 60/40 ratio of soil and perlite but I forgot to wash out the perlite. I flooded the pot that I put the mix in and it's just slowly draining. How can I fix this issue everything looks like it's all compacted together. Should I just let it dry off?
Help will be appreciated.
