Its still very cold have they enough heat, I don't start mine until the end of march as I only have a cold greenhouse to transfer them to, even then I cover them up at night

was the compost very cold? I have found this can be a problem as they have been warm. also the fine roots get damaged which leads to the wilting. they may well recover in a day or too. water them lightly.
