I'm not actually worried about a sudden cold snap, because it has not yet really warmed up here. Even the nights are still freezing, I have moved my tomato plants and some others to the greenhouse, because they were getting too leggy indoors. Every spring I build a small greenhouse with plastic cover inside the big greenhouse. This way I can keep the heated area smaller and it is still large enough for me to go and do watering etc. I have two 400W heaters with thermostat set to about 50F and it is enough to keep the small greenhouse warm, even has been at lower 20s.
