Yep, this was one of my first big lessons - have a protected area outside for seedlings! Good suggestions! We forget the wind, rain, and blazing sun can ravage a tender seedling.
You're right! Even rigging temporary protection will work... I've turned a plastic table upside down, using the legs to support a row cover "tent," and put flats of seedlings under the row cover.
I'm giggling a little at the visual image I got from "ravage" -- picturing a sweet young seedling tossing its leaves dramatically over her "face" -- oh, save me! (probably I need coffee)
