This is FREE service and it will always be free! Anyone can use information from the database for any purpose without permission.
It is intended to be community sourced and I see it as a GitHub for plant care recipes.
The purpose is to help the community with collecting and storing structured information about plants care and potentially plants in general.
The service is live so you can login https://open.plantbook.io, get API credentials and start using that. BTW, there is a social Single SignOn so you don’t even have to register.
The documentation is within Web UI and in GitHub.
Discord chat link if you have suggestions, questions or need support.
For the latest updates please see release notes.
Roadmap:
- Ability to lodge request for specific plants information to be added to DB
- Plant detection API from images
- And many other ideas which are blowing my mind…
Please take a look. Let me know what is working well and what is not working at all. Any thoughts and feedback will be much appreciated. I’m open to feature requests and your ideas!
