Really interesting stuff. My seedling raising setup checks a lot of these boxes by necessity. I start seeds, they go under lights in the basement which is usually upper 50s. They get potted up and then after 5-10 days, get acclimated to sunlight slowly and live in a cold frame on my deck, up against the house with southern exposure. Being in Wisconsin the cold box gets checked, usually multiple times. The hot box gets checked being in a cold frame in a sheltered southern exposure, which can also check the wilt box. What I haven’t done is run hands over them from tiny onward. Some years my plants get too tall if they have to stay in the cold frame due to weather. So this year I’ll try running my hands over them a couple times a day to see how works!
