About us

Hi there!

I’m Slava Pisarevskiy (AKA slaxor505, SLaX) founder of Plantbook.

My background is software and systems engineering so as you can imagine I’m not super guru at growing plants yet. But as an engineer, I’m absolutely fascinated about plants, especially what makes them alive and how nature works there. We with my wife have some plants

Many people would love to have plants. However, they do not pursue this because it is time-consuming. It is sometimes a stressful activity, especially when using a trial and error approach. Moreover, these days we already have enough things to think about and for example keeping watering schedule feels too much. 

The result, people avoid to have beautiful peace of nature at home. Or plants suffer without proper care cause stress.

I also believe that plants and agriculture as a whole are crucial areas for the entire planet. This is especially important considering food and water shortages in some areas. In the coming future the problems will be getting bigger and bigger unless we start solving them. In future, we will also need technologies to grow edible plants for space exploration.

Hence, I firmly believe that modern technologies can simplify the process of growing plants. They can also make it more efficient from a resources perspective.

I’d love to talk whether you share my beliefs or completely disagree 🙂
