I just switched out all my BangQiao for either 2.25" pots from Sophies or 2" + 2.5" Rand pots. For me the BangQiao pots (coupled with Ochriata Classic) didn't retain the moisture I needed it to despite the pots sitting in a humidity tray. Just thought I'd throw that info out there just in case it saves someone time/energy from repotting x3 like I did.
I have many small fans keeping constant air flow over all my plants.
In case folks aren’t aware, Harry died a few years ago, and his kids are now running the business.
Chula has a “partners” page, listing resellers of their stuff, so maybe one of them still has some of the small, clear pots.
Get a big clear bag. Put the pots in it. Spray it down with H2O2 in the bag, seal it and put it in the sun for a day. Should be perfectly sterile after that.For those using the BangQiao pots. I don't see anything about UV stabilization on them so I would assume they are not. Have you found them to hold up or are they too new to make that determination? Every time I use non UV stabilized pots, the end up turning brittle and crumbling.

Me too! I used to buy them a thousand at a time. I heard back from McKonkey… they said these are not made in the Us.. they are made over seas and at this time there is no possibility to make them in clear. I’ll keep looking! I do have this pot.. it’s 2.75 so half an inch bigger and almost 4” tall.Hey @StefJ Glad to see you on here. We’d love to see you solve for these unavailable chula products also
#3.25NCUV and the #4.5 CLUV
Really kicking myself for not buying bigger quantities 4 years ago
McConkey said no possibility of getting these made in clear.. they are made over seas. I know, from what I know about actually making plastic pots, that it IS technically possibly.. so I guess they just don’t have the interest. Some of my favorite pots have come and gone over the years. I want the 5.5” azalea pot back too.StefJ - Yeah, Harry was a trip to work with. He was devastated when his wife died, but managed to hang on a few years.
Have you considered contacting other vendors and/or breeders who might be willing to split the bulk cost?
Right there with you. I have a good 80% of my greenhouse in clear pots 1k+ plants. Guess it’s good to not take supply for granted any more! Btw. Checking your site for that pot you showed above now. ;-)McConkey said no possibility of getting these made in clear.. they are made over seas.
