# Some begin a series of forty days of fasting after Tu BeAv, corresponding to the forty days Moshe Rabbenu was on Har Sinai. Although those forty days begin with Rosh [[Chodesh Elul]], the series is begun earlier due to the days one may not fast, such as [[Shabbat]] and [[Rosh Chodesh]]. If one wants to space out the fasts even more, he must begin from after [[Tisha Be'Av]].<ref>Yosef Ometz (Yospa) Siman 496</ref> | # Some begin a series of forty days of fasting after Tu BeAv, corresponding to the forty days Moshe Rabbenu was on Har Sinai.

# Any seeds or saplings planted ''before'' Tu BeAv can count the following Rosh HaShanah as the completion of the first year of the [[Orlah]] count, because it takes two weeks (from Tu BeAv to Rosh Chodesh Elul) for Halacha to recognize its integration into the ground and thirty days (the month of Elul) to count as a whole year. Anything planted ''after'' Tu BeAv must count a full year ending on the next Rosh Hashanah, not the approaching one.<ref>Yalkut Yosef (Kitzur Shulchan Aruch, Yoreh Deah, Orlah 3:2)</ref> | # Any seeds or saplings planted ''before'' Tu BeAv can count the following Rosh HaShanah as the completion of the first year of the [[Orlah]] count, because it takes two weeks (from Tu BeAv to Rosh Chodesh Elul) for Halacha to recognize its integration into the ground and thirty days (the month of Elul) to count as a whole year.
