Leaving palm seedlings outside during rain

Hi,

  I was just wondering if it is okay to leave out seedlings of Needle, Trachy, and sables during heavy rains.  I have them in 3x14” cones and have only been watering them indoors.  I know palms love rainwater but do you think tho will be too much for the new roots to handle? 

Thanks!

I would do it, I can't see a downside.

I don't know how they tell the difference, but all plants do seem to love rain over tap, don't they.

It is not dead, it is just senescence.

Rain water is always best. Leave them outside in summer heat, humidity and rain. They should thrive. These are tough palms and need lots of sun and heat to survive winter.
