Grows a table of species to a given age, listing cover and variability

Provides options to control for growth, self-thinning and self-pruning

growPlants(Dynamics, Age = 10, growth = TRUE, thin = TRUE, prune = TRUE)

`Dynamics`	Table of growth models as output by floraDynamics
`Age`	Age of the site in years
`growth`	Logical - TRUE uses plant growth models in Dynamics, otherwise mean values are used and plants are not grown
`thin`	Logical - TRUE uses plant self-thinning models in Dynamics, otherwise plant cover remains at the highest point it has reached by that age
`prune`	Logical - TRUE uses plant self-pruning models in Dynamics, otherwise plants are not self-pruned and lower canopy heights remain at their lowest points
