Overview of analyses within the study. Life-cycle completion = number of individuals per species in the pot at the time of harvest divided by the number of sown seeds; biomass = mean weight of individual at the time of harvest; fecundity = mean number of capsules per individual at the time of harvest; temporal variation = mean height of individuals of target species divided by mean height of individual of competitor at the four time-sequential measurements. ¹Shade and water levels.

Analysis	Response variables	Explanatory variables	Data
(1) Life-cycle completion	Number of individuals in the time of harvest/number of seeds	Density, environmental treatment1, competitor identity, competitor density	Vegetative dataset
(2) Biomass	Mean weight of individual	Density, environmental treatment1, competitor identity, competitor density	Vegetative dataset
(3) Fecundity	Mean number of capsules per individual	Density, shading treatment, competitor identity, competitor density	Reproductive dataset
(4) Temporal variation	Target species height/(target species + competitor height)	Pot (covariable), time, density, environmental treatment1, competitor identity, competitor density	Temporal dataset
