Indoor Berry Farming Business
I want to found an indoor berry farming business that grows berries with hydroponic / stack growing techniques.
The business will grow berries around the year and partner with Uber Eats -type companies to deliver fresh berries to people's (in addition to partnerships with restaurants etc.) Use of efficient farming techniques and lack of middlemen will emables us to potentially drop prices.
The current plan: 1. I get funded. 2. I hire an accountant. 3. I spend 2-3 months on research. 4. Temporary workers and I set up the farm according to my plan. 5. I get my farm working efficiently. 6. Potential permanent employees and I work on superficial things such as marketing, branding etc. and I make ton of money, potentially rising more funds.

So Hacker News:
1. How does a 19-years-old nobody without a degree get funded? 2. What things here would you as engineers focus on? 3. Do you know anyone who has been successful with a similar business? I am especially interested in new techniques I could bring from abroad.
