I think Hammocked Banana has the right idea, the ground is cold and sucks the heat from the pots. Styrofoam is a good idea and the higher off the ground the plants are the better. I bought a couple of heated mats years ago that work wonders if you want to go all out. The mats can be used for germinating in the spring.
Good luck
