Will my babies die?

I have a few 3-4 week old plants, they are not very big and defiantly should not be on their own yet. There is a huge heat spike in the day where it can go up to 100 degrees F. I recently went on vacation for a week, and I am wondering of they will dehydrate while I am gone. I put coverings on the soil and watered them before I left. It rains usually every 3 days. I normally watered them once a day, everyday. Will this change in water kill them?

Seedlings are very susceptible to heat stress.

I went on vacation a few years back and was worried so I filled a two liter bottle with water turned it upside down and stuck it in the soil. They also sell something like this at lowes that does the same thing.

Everything dies one day, so yes, they will.
