    Hi Steven

    Yes - they could all be sown in trays and would germinate, but there's not much point going to that trouble.  They can all be sown outside where you want them to grow.  The radish should germinate inside a week; beet and turnip inside two.  Probably.The only time I'd sow beetroot indoors is in Feb to get them going a bit early. I did that and now have lots of little plants in modules to plant out later this week alongside the seedlings I've sown in the last couple of weeks.  Looking forward to grated beetroot in summer salads and sandwiches image  You can eat the young leaves as salad too.
