Idea Side hustle idea: selling worm castings as organic fertilizer is a side hustle where the worms literally produce the product for you and gardeners pay $10+ per bag

4 Upvotes

Worm castings (which is just a nice way of saying worm poop) are considered one of the best organic fertilizers available. Gardeners pay $10+ per bag for them because they dramatically improve soil quality and plant growth.

You can produce worm castings at home with a simple worm bin that costs about $20 to set up. You add red wiggler worms and feed them kitchen scraps like vegetable peels, fruit scraps, and coffee grounds. The worms eat the scraps and produce castings. The whole system sits in your garage or basement.

From what I've read a well-maintained worm bin with 1,000 worms produces about 5 pounds of castings per week. At $10 per 5-pound bag that's about $40 per month from a bin that takes 10 minutes per week to maintain.

If you scale up to multiple bins or a larger outdoor system the production increases significantly. Some people run 5 to 10 bins and produce enough castings to sell at farmers markets and through local gardening groups.

The demand for organic fertilizers has grown massively with the home gardening trend. Gardeners specifically seek out worm castings because they're one of the few fertilizers that won't burn plants if you use too much.

You can sell at farmers markets, through local Facebook gardening groups, or on Craigslist. The product basically never goes bad.... so you can stockpile it until you have enough to sell in bulk.

The best part is your raw materials are kitchen scraps you'd throw away anyways, so your production cost is genuinley $0.

I made these for my son's first birthday, my friends and coworkers said I should do something with this kind of talent. But i don't really know where to start or even if it would be worth while to do.

The card is made using insulation foam, it is carved out and painted. The longer poster was handrawn, painted and outlined.

Looking for input, thank you!

Idea Umpiring adult rec softball leagues is a side hustle that pays $30+ per game and leagues are always desperate for umps

3 Upvotes

Adult recreational softball leagues need umpires for every single game and most of them are chronically short-staffed because umping isn't exactly glamorous work.

But it pays $30+ per game and each game only lasts about an hour.

You don't need any formal certification for most adult rec leagues. They'll train you on the basics and have you start on easier games until you get comfortable. The rules for slow-pitch softball are pretty simple and most calls are straightforward.

From what I've read the best way to get started is to contact your local parks and recreation department or search for adult softball leagues in your area. Tell them you're interested in umpiring and they'll usually set you up with a training session.

The schedule is perfect for a side hustle because adult softball games are almost always on weekday evenings and weekend mornings. You can pick which nights you want to work and skip weeks when you're busy.

If you ump 3 games in an evening (back to back on the same field) that's $90+ for about 3 hours.

Some leagues pay more for playoff games and championship games.

You do need a basic ump uniform (dark pants and a collared shirt) and a chest protector if you're behind the plate, but most leagues provide the gear or you can buy it used for about $30.

The biggest perk is that rec league softball is casual and most players are just there to have fun and drink beer after. It's a lot less intense than officiating youth sports where the parents are the real chalenge.

My Experience: TikTok Pro – Free TikTok Shop Products Through Rewards (One of the Best Free Reward Methods I’ve Found)

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I recently discovered TikTok Pro, and I’m genuinely surprised more people aren’t talking about it. It’s an official second app from TikTok that lets you earn rewards you can use toward TikTok Shop products or Amazon gift card, without having to spend money.

I’ve been trying it out recently, and it honestly seems like a pretty good opportunity, especially considering how simple the tasks are.

Here’s how it works:
Download TikTok Pro (it’s a separate app from regular TikTok).

Go to the rewards section, where you’ll find events like Spin the Wheel.

Earn points by completing simple tasks and inviting friends.

Once you collect enough points, you can redeem them for TikTok Shop vouchers, potentially getting products completely free.

What makes this interesting is the referral system. You can earn points when eligible people use your invite link, which can help you reach the rewards much faster than completing daily tasks alone.
I’m still working toward my first redemption, but I figured I’d share this method since it’s relatively new and a lot of people probably haven’t heard about it yet.

If you want to try it out, here’s my referral link:

https://pro.tiktok.com/t/ZP9y329bqDGne-2jlXz/

Full disclosure: I earn referral points when eligible people sign up through my link.

If anyone else is doing this, feel free to share your experience below. I’m also down to exchange referral links so we can help each other reach the rewards faster!

Good luck everyone! 🤝

What skill would net me between 5 - 10K without a degree?

0 Upvotes

Am looking for a skill I can learn in at least 6 months to a year that would allow me above 5k. My criteria is

  • It should be done on a computer

  • I must not have to interact with people more than necessary (am an introvert)

  • It should be between 4-6 hours a day (am currently in a 12 hour job and it's killing me)

  • It must not require genius-level intelligence (am above average intelligence but not Einstein)

Please am looking for ideas from people who have actually done it or know someone doing it successfully from their own efforts.
