The plants need to be ready for our cool night air so it drops to 45*-50* over night by the time they're five weeks old.

  What's the minimum you would let your greenhouse get down to at night,  
  if you've got tomato seedlings in there (plus onions, a few greens)  
  but everything is on heating mats?  I'm banking on relying more on the  
  heating mats to keep the environment right around the seedlings warm,  
  instead of heating the whole greenhouse.
