Not sure without seeing pic's, maybe get a heat mat for the next grow.

ehh it's hard to say. The cold temps probably shocked the roots. You need to get a space heater or something, or else they won't grow in there. I have a tent in my attic, and I just keep a space heater inside. Without it, there's no chance they'll survive (unless you live somewhere warm).

how much would a space heater effect the electrical bill?. and would i need to keep it on all the time or just at night?

Sorry but that's a load of b.s. It gets down into the low 60's in my growroom at night and I have never had a plant NOT grow.

It won't make a huge difference in your electric bill. You will probably only need it at night unless it gets really cold in your growroom. Just watch the temps and adjust accordingly.

i keep my heater running @ night while my babies are sleeping, then turn it off when the lights come on..
