Question

Is it permissible to hang a Shemitah etrog in the sukkah for decoration?

Answer

If after the festival the etrog will be suitable for eating and making jam, it is permissible to hang it.

Even though throughout the festival it is prohibited to use it because it is designated for the mitzvah of sukkah decoration, after the festival it returns to being permissible.
