בְּנוֹת שׁוּחַ, שְׁבִיעִית שֶׁלָּהֶן, שְׁנִיָּה, שֶׁהֵן עוֹשׂוֹת לְשָׁלֹשׁ שָׁנִים. רַבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר, הַפַּרְסָאוֹת, שְׁבִיעִית שֶׁלָּהֶן, מוֹצָאֵי שְׁבִיעִית, שֶׁהֵן עוֹשׂוֹת לִשְׁתֵּי שָׁנִים. אָמְרוּ לוֹ, לֹא אָמְרוּ אֶלָּא בְנוֹת שׁוּחַ:

White figs--their Sabbatical year is the second year [of the Sabbatical cycle], because it takes them three years to produce. Rabbi Yehuda says: Persian figs--their Sabbatical year is the year after the Sabbatical year, because it takes them two years to produce. They replied to him: They only stated [this rule] about white figs.
