Night temperature

The comming nights, temperature in my greenhouse is one, two or three degrees above freezing.
I placed my peppers in our closed gazebo for the night.
But is it necessary? Can young peppers handle low temperatures at night?
 
Soil temp is more important than air temp, but still, you want to keep them cozy. I use a little space heater on an extension cord. Keeps mine around 60 degrees overnight.
 
The ones I let outside, got curly leaves.....now I now what not to do:)
I hope they heal fast, I gave some kelp fertilizer.
