Mishnayos Sheviis Perek 5 Mishnah 2
שביעית פרק ה׳ משנה ב׳
Bartenura
הטומן את הלוף (he who stores LOF/ a plant with edible leaves and root, and bearing beans – classified with onions and garlic) – a kind from the species of onions that are customarily stored in the ground.
לא יפחתו מסאתים – because it appears like sowing, until he stores from them two Seah in one digging at the height of three handbreadths, so that they will not be scattered, but rather it will be the height of a pile and gathered three handbreadths and a handbreadth of dirt on top of the pile.
וטומנו במקום דריסת האדם – in order that it would not grow. And the Halakha is according to the Sages.
הטומן את הלוף. מין ממיני הבצלים שרגילים לטמנן בארץ:
לא יפחות מסאתים. משום דמיחזי כזורע, עד שיטמון מהם סאתים בחפירה אחת על גובה ג׳ טפחים, שלא יהיו מפוזרים אלא יהיה גובה הכרי והצבור שלשה טפחים וטפח עפר על גבי הכרי:
וטומנו במקום דריסת האדם. כדי שלא יצמח. והלכה כחכמים:

After World War II, in 1947, Rav Yonah Sztencl, a disciple of Rav Frommer, expanded the program, advocating for a comprehensive study of Shishah Sidrei Mishnah.
