Tosefta for Terumot 7:7
זָרַע אֶת אַחַת מֵהֶן, פָּטוּר, וְהַשְּׁנִיָּה, נוֹהֵג בָּהּ בִּתְרוּמָה, וְחַיֶּבֶת בְּחַלָּה, דִּבְרֵי רַבִּי מֵאִיר. וְרַבִּי יוֹסֵי פּוֹטֵר. זָרַע אַחֵר אֶת הַשְּׁנִיָּה, פָּטוּר. זָרַע אֶחָד אֶת שְׁתֵּיהֶן, בְּדָבָר שֶׁזַּרְעוֹ כָלֶה, מֻתָּר, וּבְדָבָר שֶׁאֵין זַרְעוֹ כָלֶה. אָסוּר:
One who used one of these [baskets] as seed, he is exempt, and the second is treated as if it were <i>Terumah</i> and requires <i>Challah</i>, the words of Rabbi Meir. But Rabbi Yosi exempts. If another person uses the second as seed, he is exempt. If one man uses both as seed, if it is of a kind whose seed disintegrates [in the ground] it is permitted, but if it is of the kind whose seed does not disintegrate it is prohibited.
Tosefta Demai
Planting untithed [seeds] is prohibited, as is covering up untithed [seeds with dirt], as well as making [a partnership] with a Gentile with [respect to planting] untithed [seeds]. A Jew who forgot and planted untithed [seeds], they are exempt before they sprout because [the seeds] have already perished (cf. Ter. 7:7). One who buys [produce] for livestock, for wild animals, and for fowl is exempt from Demai.
