I was waiting for good replies and you got some.
Here are my observations.
If the plants are in the cold during the time they are collecting energy from light.
They will grow in the dark IF the soil gets warm enough.
Your situation was to keep them in the cold all of the time.
At the temperatures you are describing they will be more or less be in a holding pattern until they warm up
