Outdoor Heat

I've tried my best to search for an answer to this but haven't quite found what im looking for so...Just planted three seeds i had germinated indoors in 2-3in. tall jiffy pots w/ potting soil. The pots are sitting in an area that gets more or less direct sunlight from about 8am to 2pm, but my concern is heat. daytime temperatures in my area reach around 95-100 degrees in the sun and will be so for the next month or so. I try to keep the soil fairly moist but it seems the heat just zaps all the water, so im misting them with a spray bottle about 5 times a day. Are these seeds gonna bake and should i move them to a shaded area, or will they be alright? Many Thanks!

they will be ok if you just put a cloth over them to stop the direct sunlight from drying out your soil, but still getting the heat off the sun
