How to start your business in Just 0

When we think of starting a business, we usually think that it might cost thousands of dollars but, I have found a way that many people are applying and have started their own business. You might be surprised to know that it’s “Gardening”. Now, you might think that bringing a pot of fruit or vegetable will definitely cost you but if you take beans.

They look somewhat like this:

If you take only one bean it will be enough, it doesn`t cost (at least not in Pakistan), you can find the mud from anywhere it can grow anywhere easily and what remains “a pot” Take a plastic bag instead and water it regularly. It will sprout in just 8 to 10 days (if the temp. is above 75 degrees). It takes one week for beans to bear fruit after sprouting.

One plant gives approximately 20 to 25 coverings which usually contains 3 or 4 beans in it, giving you 50 beans on average.

(Note: Just for illustration, beans could differ according to the type chosen.)

Now, the real work starts from here, take only one covering for yourself and store the others in a refrigerator (they can survive for long without getting rotten). Now, the covering you took for yourself, suppose it contains 3 beans, now, place them either in the same bag or different it doesn`t matter they can adjust. Now, you have four plants of beans. When they bear fruit (I mean beans), how many will you have now. 4 plants each give 20 covering giving you 80 beans in total.

When you sell them, you might get 1.79 dollars? From 0, now you have 1.79$ (you have something at least). Do the same thing (until you have enough that you want).

If you are getting 1.79$ in 10 days so, in 30 days 5.37$, and in 1 year you have 64.44$ (you can grow different plants, it`s up to you). If you want to make more, you can also start your own YouTube channel of this and give opinions.

If you want to grow any other vegetable or fruit, I would suggest growing tomatoes they are easy to grow. Save some money from your daily earning and buy 1 tomato. You know that 1 tomato contains 150 to 300 seeds and you might be surprised to know that all of them do sprout (You can grow tomatoes according to your need). 1 tomato will give you 10 pounds per average without using any fertilizer but, according to your weather and area, you might get 3 or 4 tomatoes (results may vary, I actually got only 3 to 4 tomatoes per plant). Let`s go towards selling them, so you will get 1.89$ of 1 pound for 10 pounds it will be 10.89$ and it’s a great jump.

From 0, now you have 10.89$.
