They will be fine. You were not at that temp for long and the soil/roots take longer to cool than the air does . When you get into the 30's you see problems. A dedicated circuit for the grow is a must and you have corrected that. Also, maybe a small space heater with a thermostat as a backup in case power/bulb goes. Happy growing!

Hope you will be OK. No freeze. Only seedlings. Only one 12 hr or less dark period. Fingers crossed.

I left my aeroponic machine unplugged for 8 hours on some unrooted cuttings, came back to them sagged over and dead and they all recovered in 24 hours and rooted a few days later so they can take some abuse lol

Weeds a tough plant and as was pointed out can see 45° as seedlings outside and be just fine.
A seedling heating mat may help them germ faster/better.
