    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.

    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.

    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.

      @@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'.

      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.

    I'm astounded by your unlimitted potential for growth. You're always growing and learning new things. I need to grow and learn some new things.

    Hannah, the cottage looking amazing. You've done a great job... Been watching for a while and we're kindred spirits.. I also live in a woodland cabin (Australia). I don't own it though... The things I'm allowed to change, I have made myself comfortable... I hope you know that you inspire others to not limit themselves and become complacent... The way you live your life and endeavour to get things done, while learning along the way even if sometimes it fail (first attempt in learning)... I look forward to your new content some... Wanderlust and freedom from Australia ♥️🌲🌿🍄🌼🌸

    I have been you! I learned how to do plumbing and electrical as I needed to! I am so happy with how brave you are to just give it a go! You definitely want to learn to solder. You might also consider PEX piping. It is more tolerant of freezing temperature and won't burst so easily.
