I just moved to a new apartment this past weekend and I think I could fit a few plants in before the frost.

I'm thinking of having three pots, one spinach, one kohlrabi, one radishes.

I've done a little research so I (think I) know the basics, but does anyone have any hot tips for someone just starting out?

You should be good with the spinach and radishes, we're in 5b and are still within the window to get harvests on both of those. I haven't grown kohlrabi before so I can't speak to that specifically but I'd expect them to do pretty well for you. If you include onion or chives in one of the pots you could expect to get scallions as well.
