Uktzin 1:3-4

Uktzin 1:3

The following are rendered unclean and convey impurity, but they don’t combine: garlic roots, dry onions and leeks, the stalk that’s not inside the edible part, the twig of a vine up to a handbreadth in length (about 3”) on either side, the stem of the cluster in any length, the tail end of a cluster with no grapes on it, the stem of a palm tree’s “broom” up to four handbreadths in length (about 12”), the stalk of an ear up to three handbreadths in length (about 9”), and the stalk of things that are reaped up to three handbreadths in length. Regarding things that are not normally reaped, their stalks and roots in any length and the ears are rendered unclean and convey impurity but don’t combine.

Uktzin 1:4

The following are neither rendered unclean nor do they convey impurity and they don’t combine: cabbage-stalk roots, beet shoots, and turnips that that are normally cut but that were pulled out. Rabbi Yosi rules them all susceptible to impurity except for cabbage-stalk roots and turnips.
