Question
Cucumbers that were pickled, and it turned out that by mistake sefichin were used, and they can last for several years. Is there a time when they are permitted?
Answer
If the cucumbers were harvested in the seventh year, they are forbidden forever. However, if they were harvested after the seventh year from what grew in the seventh year, once there is an eighth-year yield of cucumbers in the market, they are permitted, or alternatively, if Chanukah arrives even though there are still no eighth-year cucumbers, they are permitted. [Whichever comes first].
