You may not want to cut your rhubarb when you harvest it. You are supposed to twist it and snap it off at the base so it tells the plant to grow a new stalk. If you cut them the base just sits there and doesn't regrow a stalk. Just a little tip.

Hi Hannah, if you add some water plants to your pond to create shade it will not let the algae grow. The light is what causes the algae. I used potted plants sitting on the bottom. Waterlillies are really good ones because the pads cover the surface and block the light.

Good job on the soldering. Some people never get the hang of it. If you keep a cold, wet rag handy when you're soldering and immediately wipe it around the joint when you're done, it immediately solidifies the solder and you get fewer leaks. As a bonus, your solder ends up shiny silver instead of that burnt look. As a Maintenance guy, it's fun to watch you learn all of these things by yourself.

I love that you forgive yourself for making mistakes. I struggle a lot with fear of failure and perfectionism and it prevents me from trying new things sometimes. You inspire me to want to face my fears and give myself permission to make mistakes ❤ thanks for sharing your endless optimism and encouragement with the rest of us!

@@hannahleeduggan It's such a long hard journey to accepting your flaws and learning from mistakes. I hope to one day be in the same mindset as you, but it's an adventure regardless. Love how positive you are and it REALLY is encouraging seeing your failings and learning and eventually not failing! It normalizes making mistakes and showing us that you don't know everything, but opening it up for a learning experience. It's just so refreshing from other DIY channels where they speak as if they fully 'know'.

Hannah, you should collect some seeds from your lupins in the fall and sell them in your store! Spreading the joy of lupins!

The sheer amount of skill you have taught yourself is mind-boggling

Yes you need to pull rhubarb. Not sure about the twisting part but always pull The reason for that is because the sweetest part of the rhubarb is at the bottom. (I was told this by my grandparents many many years ago,)

Hannah, I just love your personality, spontaneity and your work ethics. You do what you have to do without even knowing how to do it. Google is a great resource and you make it (the work you do) look achievable and sooooo interesting. You are my KZread hero. Cut through a wall, tear a wall down, build a porch, courtyard you go lady and you do it all without complaining. YOU DEFINITELY ARE THE ONE TO WACTH. THANK you for being so entertaining.

Algae growth is of course favored by light, but mainly by too many nutrients from the fish waste in the water. On the other hand, aquatic plants, which use up these nutrients and thus remove them from the algae, naturally help.

@16:15 Nah Hannah your optimism is not getting old. Its inspiring and motivating me to reframe how I think about less than ideal circumstances and be kinder to myself when mistakes happen . So a HUGE thank you 😊

I'm your mothers age and I ❤️ ❤️❤️ your willingness to try new things, even if they are scary. Bravo!

I love when you get in your really really talkative moods

Literally every Sunday when you upload brings me so much joy , I love what you’ve done for yourself, I wish someday I can afford to follow your footsteps

Hannah, you are absolutely amazing to me. The stuff you tackle & do without any idea how and then it turns out BEAUTIFULLY! You are an inspiration! I’m a 74 year old grandma - I want to be brave just like you next time!! Love & Blessings, Dear One! Until next time - ❤️🙏🏻

I am 42 and thought I was stuck in my "too scared to try something new" phase forever but, you permanently changed that sad mentality for me. ❤

Reconsider using that particular sash for the shower. What you need is a window with tempered glass, much safer if it breaks or shatters.

Great job on sweating pipes. When opening main value... open just a little at first and open more when you hear water is slowing down or building pressure and all the way when it is full. It will prevent from settlement being pushed into your faucets and toilet tank valve, filters.

You are one of many of our inspirations. I don’t like to use the term influencer because that could include bad. You and your sister also, are an inspiration to our society. You are the fresh air that everyone should breathe. You show people, particularly women, how you sustain yourself through life and you do it successfully because you live another day. And to the Oz that edits, thank you for helping Hannah bring her messages.

I once had a therapist help me to leave something I had worked on 15 years. She said "you take your beauty with you" When I see you leave your beauty everywhere you go I am reminded that you have so much beauty Inside and that which pours out. ❤

You should build a small bridge over your pond so you can stare at your fish from on top of them. You can even make it moveable for easy cleaning .

As the old plumber said: cut off three times and still too short ;-P It's so nice to see you work on your projects with a courage that a pro could learn from. Please keep this spirit alive!

I just love this woman! Such a positive, motivated "can do anything" type of person. Must have amazing parents ❤

Just got home from Lowe's picking up some things to continue renovating my off grid homestead, but instead of getting started on my projects for the day, I'm watching Hannah work instead...😄 That's okay...you always provide good inspiration and motivation to keep going on the home improvements...😏 Thanks, Hannah! ❤ P.s. I am redoing all my plumbing in rv hoses connected to hose manifolds, as I'm sick of copper pipes blowing out in the winter.

I'm starting to realize what an amazing women you are, Hannah; you have beautiful heart. Thank you for doing your videos. I really appreciate you doing them and look forward to each one of them. God be with you, always.

a tip for you when you sweat the pipe , aka solder, have a wet towel and after you melted the solder wipe it around you will get a clean looking line while it still hot the rag will cool it also. for the windows you can use bondo or wood filler and sand it to repair it , then use primer i'd do oil based primer and like a elastomeric type paint and window caulking to water proof dont forget the flashing ! maybe also on top of window make alittle awning to divert the water. and then buy some curtains or make them

From one pond lover to another -> more plants = less algae (the plants feed on the nitrogen (waste aka poo) from the fish so it doesn’t feed the algae). Also - my ancient and very green thumbed Gma always said twist rhubarb off not cut. Love your content, you’re a legend.

Ah, Hannah..., six years ago I bought my own little fixer upper cottage that I am totally in love with! Like you, I’m curious and resourceful and endlessly creative with all aspects of home ownership-even thought I could/should have been doing a dyi KZread channel to document all the crazy skills I’ve acquired- only difference however is mine would be for women over 60!!🤣😎😇 Keep up the good work, Girly!!😍

Well, Hannah, the reason I keep checking in on your escapades is right here: you just keep moving forward to accomplish creative goals and overcoming obstacles. It is inspiring!

Girl, that's exactly what us do-it-yourself girls do. Research is key! Love watching you!

Hannah, you amaze me! I Love your “can do” spirit! The stream of consciousness dialogue is so much fun, and it makes sense! I enjoy hearing how people think…💗

Hannah I love your videos so much! I'm so happy I got here early and got a chance to say that your channel is my comfort channel, inspo for going outside when I know I need to but don't have the energy, and being active for my mental and physical health. I even showed your videos to my dad because hes a welder and builder and is always doing home improvement projects on our mountain home. He's very impressed with your ingenuity and we both wish you the best!

I've used no telling how many of those SharkBite fittings on copper and pvc and it still amazes me how something so simple can work so well.

Wow Hannah you are so self sufficient you can turn your hand to anything. Love the way you save animals, Im like that too. x

OMG!!! I love how everytime you return to your cabins there are more and more lupines..its so magical~ Thank you for sharing your Magic

i just recently started working at a hardware store and seeing you with all those little hardware bits for the shower makes me so happy, idk why :)

Repairing your pipes was Awesome!!!! I always wanted to do this but I was worried that I would make it worse. Great job!!!!

Your ability to just power through learning new skills is astonishing to me! We've been having road and water main reconstruction nearby and our water keeps getting turned on and off and it's amazing how much crap gets stuck in the filters when that happens, so you might want to replace the aerators on your faucets once you're finished.

Back in the 70s, my grandma and i spent one whole afternoon perfecting our fresh picked strawberry/rhubarb pie recipe....cutting my rhubarb every year always puts a smile on my face❤

your homes are so gorgeous wow

Learning the safety! Also, learned the soldering!

When you go to fix piping. You have to soldering (sp?) to the pipes to the new fittings. (those connector pieces). That's why the work you did leaked. Of course, also you have more than 1 leak. So fixing them all is imperative. You can't run water right after doing soldering work either, you have to let it dry.

Hannah! You just taught me how to fix copper plumbing, you did great! I love how your brain works, because it's like mine. 😊

I love your optimism and energy and occasional realistic chaos and honesty. I know you can't share all parts of your life but I appreciate that you represent real problem solving and the learning process of new skills. I am a human too, and I approach things like you do in most ways (but with more F bombs and dogs). The world needs more people like you ❤❤❤❤❤❤

I swear, I want your life! Love, love, love all your videos!
