Bartenura
שנתערבה בנטיעות. של היתר, ואינו מכיר הנטיעה של ערלה:
ושל כלאי הכרם. כגון שהעביר עציץ נקוב תחת גפן אחת ונאסרה, ואינו מכירה בין שאר גפנים:
הרי זה לא ילקוט. דכיון שאינו מכיר אותה של איסור כולן אסורות:
אף יתכוין וילקוט. דחזקה אין אדם אוסר כרמו בנטיעה אחת ולא חיישינן דלמא אתי לערב הנטיעה לכתחילה. ואף על גב דבעלמא אין מבטלין איסור לכתחלה הכא מלתא דלא שכיחא היא ולא גזור. ואין הלכה כר׳ יוסי:
Mishnah 2
Mishnayos Orlah Perek 1 Mishnah 7
ערלה פרק א׳ משנה ז׳
Bartenura
ומי גפנים – the water the comes out from the grape-vines when we cut them, or the vine-shoots in the days of Nisan.
וסמדר – [budding berries] is the flowering that from it comes out the half-ripe fruit/grapes. But the half-ripe fruit itself, everyone admits that it is fruit.
מותרים בערלה – as it is written (Leviticus 19:23): “You shall regard its fruit as forbidden.” But these are not fruit.
וברבעי – they are eaten in the fourth year outside of Jerusalem without redemption, as it is written (Leviticus 19:24): “[In the fourth year] all fruit shall be set aside for jubilation [before the LORD],” but these are not considered fruit.
ובנזיר – the Nazirite is permitted to eat them, for concerning the Nazirite it is written (Numbers 6:3): “nor eat grapes fresh or dried” and these are not eatable.
ואסורים באשרה – as it is written (Deuteronomy 13:18): “Let nothing that has been doomed stick to your hand [in order that the LORD may turn from His blazing anger and show you compassion],” and the Asherah is a tree that is worshipped.
המעמיד בשרף הערלה – curdles cheese with the sap/resinous substances of the trees of Orlah/uncircumcised trees. Sap/resinous substance is called GUMA in the foreign tongue, and Rabbi Eliezer holds that the sap is fruit, whether the tree produces fruit or whether the tree does not produce fruit. But the Halakha is not according to either Rabbi Yosi or to Rabbi Eliezer.
בשרף הפגיס – the sap that flows from fruit that have not fully ripened. And the Halakha is according to Rabbi Yehoshua.
ומי גפנים. המים היוצאים מן הגפנים כשחותכים אותם או את הזמורות בימי ניסן:
הסמדר. הוא הפרח שממנו יצא הבוסר. אבל הבוסר עצמו הכל מודים שהוא פרי:
מותרים בערלה. דכתיב (ויקרא י״ט:כ״ג) וערלתם ערלתו את פריו והני לאו פרי נינהו:
וברבעי. נאכלין בשנה רביעית חוץ לירושלים בלא פדיון דיהיה כל פריו קדש הלולים כתיב (שם) והני לא הוי פרי:
ובנזיר. מותר הנזיר לאכלם דבנזיר כתיב (במדבר ו) לא יאכל והני לאו בני אכילה נינהו:
ואסורים באשרה. דכתיב (דברים י״ג:י״ח) ולא ידבק בידך מאומה מן החרם ואשרה הוא אילן הנעבד:
המעמיד בשרף הערלה. המעמיד גבינה בשרף הנוטף מעצי ערלה: שרף גומ״א בלע״ז. וסבר רבי אליעזר דשרף הוי פרי, בין באילן העושה פירות בין באילן שאינו עושה פירות. ואין הלכה כר׳ יוסי ולא כר׳ אליעזר:
בשרף הפגים. שרף הנוטף מן הפירות שלא בשלו כל צרכן. והלכה כרבי יהושע:
Mishnah Yomi FAQ

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. The idea of studying two Mishnayos daily gained the support of figures like Rav Isser Zalman Meltzer, the Tchebiner Rov, and the Gerer Rebbe, marking the formal inception of Mishnah Yomi.

שנתערבה בנטיעות – of permitted [saplings/plantings] and he doesn’t recognize the sapling of Orlah
ושל כלאי הכרם – and of mixed seeds in a vineyard, as for example, if he transferred that which grows in a perforated pot (placed in the ground – which is legally like that which grows in the ground itself – see Mishnah Tractate Demai, Chapter 5, Mishnah 10) under one grape-vine and it was prohibited and he doesn’t recognize it amidst the rest of his grape-vines.
הרי זה לא ילקט – for since he doesn’t recognize it as something prohibited, all of them are prohibited.
אף יתכוין וילקט – for it is legal presumption that a person does not prohibit his vineyard through one sapling and we don’t suspect that perhaps he comes to combine the sapling ab initio. But even though that generally we don’t abolish a prohibition, ab initio, here is something that is not frequent, and we don’t make the decree. But the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Yosi.
