1. **State the problem:** Solve the quadratic equation $$x^2 + 19x = 0$$ by factoring.
2. **Write the equation:** $$x^2 + 19x = 0$$
3. **Factor the equation:** Factor out the common factor $x$:
$$x(x + 19) = 0$$
4. **Apply the zero product property:** For the product to be zero, either factor must be zero:
$$x = 0 \quad \text{or} \quad x + 19 = 0$$
5. **Solve each equation:**
- For $x = 0$, the solution is $0$.
- For $x + 19 = 0$, subtract $19$ from both sides:
$$x + 19 = 0$$
$$x = \cancel{+19} - 19$$
$$x = -19$$
6. **Final solution set:**
$$\boxed{0, -19}$$
These are the values of $x$ that satisfy the original equation.
