Evaporation cools, that's why damp terracotta for the outside pot is a

In the very cold years here, I noticed that seedlings sealed in plastic
bags survived, whilst those exposed to the air in the greenhouse did
not, I put that down to lack of evaporation.

Whether putting your pot of seedlings in a plastic bag and tying a knot
in it is a good idea is another matter.
