של ערלה ושל תרומה טמאה פסול. דאמר קרא (ויקרא כ״ג:מ׳) ולקחתם לכם, שיהיה ראוי לכם:
ואם נטל כשר. שהרי יש בה היתר אכילה:
ובית הלל מכשירין. דהא חזי לעניים, כדתנן מאכילין את העניים דמאי:

Mishnayos Sukkah Perek 3 Mishnah 6
סוכה פרק ג׳ משנה ו׳
Bartenura
עלתה חזזית – like thin blains/pustules.
על רובו – it is one place, for we require the majority, but in two or three places, even on the minority, it is invalid. And on its pestle-like protuberance on the blossom-end (i.e., of the Etrog/citron), even a little bit is invalid, for it appears there more than in the rest of the places.
פטמתו – the beauty at its head, like the protuberance on the blossom end of the pomegranate.
נקלף פסול – and specifically if was completely peeled off, but it is valid if only part of it [was peeled off]. And there are those who say the opposite – that if part of it was peeled off, it is invalid, for it appears like it is striped/speckled, but if it is completely peeled off, it is valid. But that being peeled off is not that the peeling was removed until the whiteness that is in it appears, for this is lacking and invalid, but rather, that a thin crust/coating was peeled off from it and its appearance is green as at the beginning.
ניקב – a perforated hole from side to side, even of a little bit of it is invalid, but if it is not perforated, and is not missing anything, such as when he inserts a thick peg/nail , if the puncture is as wide as an Issar, it is invalid; less than this it is valid. And this puncture which is not missing a little bit is valid, as we teach further on that which is not perforated and is not as wide as an Issar.
אתרוג הכושי – that grew here and is black is invalid. But, a Cushite/dark-colored Etrog that grew in the land of Cush, which is its manner and is valid.
ורבי יהודה פוסל – And the Halakha is according to Rabbi Yehuda. And all of these are invalid on the First Day of the Festival [of Sukkot]., but on the Second Day of the Festival with the rest of the days, everything is valid.
עלתה חזזית. כמין אבעבועות דקות:
על רובו. במקום אחד הוא דבעינן רובו, אבל בב׳ או בג׳ מקומות אפילו על מיעוטו פסול. ועל פטמתו אפילו כל שהוא פסול, ששם הוא נראה יותר מבשאר מקומות:
פטמתו. הדד שבראשו. כמו פטמא של רמון:
נקלף פסול. ודוקא שנקלף כולו, אבל מקצתו כשר. ואית דאמרי איפכא נקלף מקצתו פסול, דמיחזי כמנומר, אבל נקלף כולו כשר. והאי נקלף לאו שהוסרה הקליפה עד שנראה הלבנונית שבתוכו, דהאי הוי חסר ופסול, אלא שנקלף ממנו גלד דק ומראהו ירוק כאשר בתחלה:
ניקב. נקב מפולש מעבר אל עבר אפילו בכל שהוא פסול. ושאינו מפולש ואינו חסר כלום כגון שתחב בו יתד עבה, אם הנקב רחב כאיסר פסול, פחות מכאן כשר. והיינו ניקב ולא חסר כל שהוא כשר, דתנינן לקמן שאינו מפולש ואינו רחב כאיסר:
אתרוג הכושי. שגדל כאן והוא שחור, פסול. אבל כושי שגדל בארץ כוש אורחיה הוא וכשר:
ורבי יהודה פוסל. והלכה כרבי יהודה. וכל הני פסולים ביו״ט ראשון, אבל ביו״ט שני עם שאר הימים הכל כשר:
Mishnah Yomi FAQ

In 1934, the Kozoglover Gaon, Rav Aryeh Tzvi Frommer, who took over from Rav Meir Shapiro (the founder of Daf Yomi) as the head of Yeshivas Chachmei Lublin, initiated the Mishnah Yomi cycle, focusing on Seder Zeraim and Seder Taharos. 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.
