A real office garden, documented honestly.
I'm Oliver Trajceski, a software architect. In 2026 I started growing cherry tomatoes and cucumbers in my software office.
I started with five plants, added five more, then another five — and eventually had approximately 20 tomato and cucumber plants between the desks and the windows. I documented it with original photos, videos and notes. GardenCopilot grew out of that experience.
From writing code to growing food.
Writing things down turned a few seed trays into something useful: which plant lived in which bag, when things changed, what I counted. Those records became the experiment logs on this site.
From there came practical resources — guides and a free calculator — and the idea for a personal growing assistant that could help other people plan, track and learn from their own indoor growing.
How content is made
Three rules for everything published here. I may use AI tools to help draft text; facts about the plants come from the original records.
Original footage
Photos and videos come from the actual office-growing experiment, with recording dates taken from the original files. No AI-generated plants are presented as evidence.
Honest measurements
Recorded counts are kept separate from assumptions and estimates, and labelled so you know which is which.
Transparent limitations
When something wasn't documented — a variety, a date, a harvest weight — the page says so instead of filling the gap.
What GardenCopilot is today
A personal growing assistant to help people plan, track and learn from indoor food growing. It isn't available yet. About the app
Physical products such as growing kits are future ideas only — nothing is for sale. Produce from the office garden isn't sold and isn't certified organic.
