Question
From when is it forbidden to buy carrots in the market without supervision?
Answer
Until the 1st of Kislev 5782, all carrots were harvested in the sixth year, and since then, there are carrots in the market that were harvested in the seventh year, which have the sanctity of the seventh year and a prohibition on commerce. However, according to the Rambam, the prohibition of 'sefichin' applies from this time, but according to the Rash and Ramban, the prohibition of 'sefichin' will only apply from the time the species began to grow in the seventh year, which started from the 3rd of Shevat 5782.
