Menachos8: 2
אֵין מְבִיאִין לֹא מִבֵּית הַזְּבָלִים, וְלֹא מִבֵּית הַשְּׁלָחִים, וְלֹא מִבֵּית הָאִילָן; וְאִם הֵבִיא, כָּשֵׁר. כֵּיצַד הוּא עוֹשֶׂה? נָרָהּ שָׁנָה רִאשׁוֹנָה, וּבַשְּׁנִיָּה זוֹרְעָהּ קֹדֶם לַפֶּסַח שִׁבְעִים יוֹם, וְהִיא עוֹשָׂה סֹלֶת מְרֻבָּה. כֵּיצַד הוּא בוֹדֵק? הַגִּזְבָּר מַכְנִיס אֶת יָדוֹ לְתוֹכָהּ. עָלָה בָהּ אָבָק, פְּסוּלָה עַד שֶׁיְּנַפֶּנָּה. וְאִם הִתְלִיעָה, פְּסוּלָה.
We do not bring either from a fertilized field, or from an irrigated field, or from a field of trees; but if one brought, it is valid. How does one do it? He plows it the first year, and in the second he plants it seventy days prior to Passover, and it produces fine flour in abundance. How does one check it? The treasurer inserts his hand into it. [If] dust comes up in it, it is unfit until he sifts it. If it becomes wormy, it is unfit.
