Kind of a vauge question. Since transpiration is evaporation from a plant, yes. But how one would even go about doing this escapes me.

transpiration is not the same as evaporation - transpiration is the process of passing water (and vital minerals from soil) from roots through the plant and through stomatas outside

not true that evaporation cant be stopped -if air is damp nothing can evaporate

if evaporation is slow (like in damp air) the plant cannot transpire and the water transport is slowed down which is unfavorable for the plant, so at least the plant produces liquid water at so called hydatodes (guttation process) - those droplets of water at leaf margins - to keep the water transport going. also some plants have adaptation to speed up transpiration - poplars have wriggly leaves to stir the air even in slightest wind

google transpiration, evaporation, evapotranspiration, hydatodes, guttation (OR GUTATION)? to find more

Yes, but u can't stop evaporation so transpiration will never stop.
