Michigan outdoor grows

I did OK with the rain, mainly because it was so dry around here. Honestly today is the first time we've had a decent rain in like 2 months almost ?

I still had Septoria taxing my ass all season though. Though I FINALLY figured out where that may be coming in from:

My Garden is near the woods, and the side part of the garden, has a LOT of plants that pop up (native plants, a bunch of Mint plants because they spread like fire...) and I was out there one day, and started seeing that tell tale sign of Septoria popping up, even though there wasn't hardly any rain, and the air itself was actually pretty dry for my area, and I'm like "damn it... How??" and I start looking around near the plants, and there it was.... A bunch of Mint plants covered in that shit... So every time the wind blew, that shit was going everywhere...

I actually lost two whole plants, and most of a third one, which doesn't normally happen honestly. I have made plans to basically burn that shit down this upcoming year. I thought maybe the RH at night played a part in it, but there really wasn't enough moisture, until you get into a dense jungle of Mint plants without any real air flow. Felt kind of stupid not seeing it before this, but, now I know, I need to go out there and actually take all that shit down so it doesn't keep doing that. And I know it's that now, because the two plants on the far side of the yard, barely had any issues. So, reworking the garden it is.
