Excellent questions, when these circumstances are accounted for and introduced in indoor pre-planting it’s typically called Hardening

It would be a real shame if they haven’t prepared for these circumstances, but it wouldn’t be the first time

Thank you for sharing! Yes it would be a shame, and I often worry about things like this that remove natural competitive mechanisms that would increase fitness in plants in a rapidly changing environment. I’ve worked on the hands-on side of habitat restoration for almost 10 yrs now and am very interested in getting into research either in propagation or field restoration trials. There’s a lot of disconnect between folks on the ground and people making the plans.
