Question
From when is it prohibited to buy zucchini in the market without supervision?
Answer
From the 3rd of Tishrei 5782, any produce of this type that was harvested after Rosh Hashanah is sanctified with the sanctity of Shemitah, and there is a prohibition on commerce. However, according to the Rambam, the prohibition of sefichin applies from this time, while according to the Rash and the Ramban, the prohibition of sefichin will apply only from the time the species began to grow in the Shemitah year, which started from the 19th of Cheshvan 5782.
