Scientific Speculation - Plants accidentally exposed to vacuum of space

A newly-built base on the moon has the first two compartments of a pressurized greenhouse farm. An airlock system automatically seals one compartment off the others when pressure sensors indicate a pressure drop is caused by failure, including that of meteor impact.

The airlocks allow the settlers to move the plants from the vacuumed greenhouse into the sealed one without losing air. All plants are Earth crop plants. Assume all measures have been taken to allow a fast removal of plants from the damaged greenhouse into the intact one.
