A spade.
A pot (so the roots of the plants can spread), (or a nursery if you want to grow a lot, and if you have a nursery I recommend something that says can grow in a nursery, like Bok Chor).
Some soil.
A seed of your choice there are a lot of plants to choose from if you are growing outside if you want to grow a creeper (Not from Minecraft), (Cucumber for example) that climbs on poles, I recommend at the beginning you should put small sticks in the soil near the plant to help it grow and wrap around the stick.
A watering can, but at the start, use a spray bottle (you should water your plants every day I usually water them at midday
You can do this with bamboo for the sticks (for creeper plants) and soft netting and grow the plant right next to the post, if you are doing it on the pavement, do it in fairly sided pots.
How to plant:
The most common thing to do is to put a small amount of soil at the bottom and then put the seed in and then cover it up, NO, don't do that, please don't do that, ideally, you should do is, you fill half of the pot with soil, the reason you should do that is because the roots of the plant will have space to spread.
If you are not home lots of times you can do this setup, you can make a cheaper version of this, by getting a water bottle and poking or drilling a small hole through the cap and fill it up with water, and you can stick the water bottle to a stick that the bottle can easily come out but strong enough to hold the water bottle, and what you get is a dropper that you can modify to your will.
Once the plant is grown, take scissors and cut your plants, and if you have Aloe vera, you may use the gel inside to heal wounds.
Very interesting perspective !
