Taking ma’aserot from herbs grown in planters
Question
Which poskim are lenient about eating herbs grown in planters without first taking terumot and ma’aserot?
Answer
Rabbi Yehuda HaLevy Amichay
There are many poskim who are lenient about herbs that only add flavor (but are not eaten on their own). This is the ruling of the Tosafot in tractates Nidda and Yoma. Rabbi Shaul Yisraeli ruled in a similar fashion.
