Radishes

:? thought I would sow some Radishes today - have covered them with fleece - read in one of my books that Radishes can usually be sown in late Jan/early Feb if they are kept covered. Do you think they should be ok - or do you think I've sown them a bit early?

The first year I had me plot I sowed some radish in Feb and they did better than those later which seem to always get hit by the cabbage root fly, kept them under glass the whole time.
