Question

Self-grown produce has grown in my yard, which is forbidden to eat. What should I do? On one hand, it is forbidden to destroy vegetables that grew in the Sabbatical year, but on the other hand, it is forbidden to maintain the self-grown produce, and they are forbidden to eat.

Answer

It is a mitzvah to uproot them, and after uprooting them, it is permitted to destroy them by hand.
