I'll take a whack at this one -- dig a hole about a foot deep, fill it with
water and see how long it takes to drain. Most references I know say that
if it drains within a day, it's well-drained. If it takes longer, its not.
How's that for scientific??? By the way, my soil drains in about 15
minutes.
