Question
From when is it forbidden to buy okra in the market without supervision?
Answer
3rd of Tishrei 5782, any produce of this type harvested from Rosh Hashanah is sanctified with the sanctity of Shemitah, and there is a prohibition on commerce. However, according to Rambam, the prohibition of sefichin applies from this time, but according to Rash and Ramban, the prohibition of sefichin will only apply from the time the species begins to grow in the Shemitah year, and the timing needs to be clarified.
