Pepper seedlings no light first 24 hours

I planted 6 Carmen pepper seeds. I covered them to speed up germination (heating matt under them). I checked them several times a day and when the first one merged (before the leaves emerged) whemo nly the corved part of the stem was visible I then removed the cover and put grop ights over them. The 3 that cam up that first day were very pale and yellow and looked exactly like plants that did not get light. The next 2 are green like normal (they were not covered for the 24 hours before emerging.


It is clear that the plants needed even the little light they would get just before emerging. Do you this the first 3 will recover? Below is the first one, it has been up for 3 days.
