Talmud for Kilayim 6:9

הַפֶּרַח הַיּוֹצֵא מִן הֶעָרִיס, רוֹאִין אוֹתוֹ כְּאִלּוּ מְטֻטֶּלֶת תְּלוּיָה בוֹ, כְּנֶגְדּוֹ אָסוּר. וְכֵן בְּדָלִית. הַמּוֹתֵחַ זְמוֹרָה מֵאִילָן לְאִילָן, תַּחְתֶּיהָ אָסוּר. סִפְּקָהּ בְּחֶבֶל אוֹ בְגֶמִי, תַּחַת הַסִּפּוּק מֻתָּר. עֲשָׂאָהּ כְּדֵי שֶׁיְּהַלֵּךְ עָלָיו הֶחָדָשׁ, אָסוּר:

If a [vine] tendril protrudes from the <i>aris</i>, it is regarded as though a plumb-line were suspended from it, [and] directly beneath it, it is forbidden to sow. Similarly, [the law is the same] in the case of a <i> dalit</i> [branches of a single trellised vine]. If one stretches a [vine] branch from one tree to the next , it is forbidden to sow beneath it. If he extended it [the branch, in order for it to reach the other tree] with a rope or reed-grass, under the extension [the rope or reed-grass] it is permitted to sow. If he made it [the extension] so that the new [branches] should spread along it, then it is forbidden [to plant beneath it].
