will they be okay without a lot of heat?

My wife's becoming more and more concerned about the electricity bill now that I've been keeping the warming light on for the cacti. She'd like it off for the better part of the day. Will they be okay with heat for only a couple hours a day and the rest of the time be in the high sixties?

You're talking about your seedling Lophs, right?

Is the light to provide heat or light to make food?

nope, those went down the toilet.

I'm talking about the mixed bag of whatevers from burpee.

These ones

If it's cool, those guys will just grow a tad more slowly. Just watch out for rot, maybe ease up on the water a tad. By the time spring temps creep up higher you can start to push them again.
