As you may well know, radish should be sown a few at a time on a weekly basis, otherwise you get a glut of them.
You will still get a few fresh ones if you start them off now ... 3" pots filled with fresh compost and a couple of seeds in each pot. If they are started in the greenhouse they should be okay as long as you dont let them dry out.
Last week I started some carrots and beetroot off in the polytunnel, they will be ready before the spring.. there's still some heat in the sun, so dont be afraid to experiment.
