Talmud for Kilayim 2:9

הָרוֹצֶה לַעֲשׂוֹת שָׂדֵהוּ קָרַחַת קָרַחַת מִכָּל מִין, עוֹשֶׂה עֶשְׂרִים וְאַרְבַּע קָרָחוֹת לְבֵית סְאָה, מִקָּרַחַת לְבֵית רֹבַע, וְזוֹרֵעַ בְּתוֹכָהּ כָּל מִין שֶׁיִּרְצֶה. הָיְתָה קָרַחַת אַחַת אוֹ שְׁתַּיִם, זוֹרְעָם חַרְדָּל. שָׁלֹשׁ, לֹא יִזְרַע חַרְדָּל, מִפְּנֵי שֶׁהִיא נִרְאֵית כִּשְׂדֵה חַרְדָּל, דִּבְרֵי רַבִּי מֵאִיר. וַחֲכָמִים אוֹמְרִים, תֵּשַׁע קָרָחוֹת מֻתָּרוֹת, עֶשֶׂר אֲסוּרוֹת. רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר בֶּן יַעֲקֹב אוֹמֵר, אֲפִלּוּ כָל שָׂדֵהוּ בֵּית כּוֹר, לֹא יַעֲשֶׂה בְתוֹכָהּ חוּץ מִקָּרַחַת אַחַת:

If a man desires to lay out his field into patches [each to be sown] with differing species, he may make [divide it into] twenty-four patches of a <i>beit se'ah</i>, each patch one <i>beit rova</i> [specific unit of volume] and may sow whatever species he so desires [in them]. If [in a grain field] there are one or two patches [each less than a <i>beit rova</i>], he may sow them with mustard ; [if there were] three, he may not sow them with mustard for it will look like a mustard field, these are the words Rabbi Meir. The Sages say, Nine patches [for each <i>beit se'ah</i>] are permitted [to be sown with whatever you desire], ten are prohibited . Rabbi Eleazar ben Yaakov says, Even if his entire field is a <i> beit kor</i> [specific unit of volume], he may not make [sow] in it more that one patch.

Jerusalem Talmud Pesachim

MISHNAH: And the following are removed on Passover: Babylonian kutah1Cf. Chapter 2, Note 290., and Median beer2Made from barley., and Edomite vinegar3Made with barley: cf. Chapter 2, Note 286., and Egyptian zythum4Greek ζῦθος, ὁ, a kind of beer., and dyers’ gravy5Greek ζύμη, ἡ., and cooks’ starch, and scribes’ glue6Greek κόλλα, -ης, ἡ, “flour paste”.; Rebbi Eliezer says, also women’s make-up7If the base contains flour. This is the principle: Anything made from grain one removes on Passover; these are included in the warning8They are biblically forbidden. but they are not cause for extirpation9If edible, the grain is no longer visible. If not edible, consumption is not punishable..
