Reply To: What to Do with My Etrog?

Ashreinu- LeiderLeider has the right aitza, because the Etrog was grown during Shmita the Etrog cannot be used for Basamin. It either needs to shrivel up and be thrown in the garbage, or eaten with the rind before it is spoiled and rotten. At that point you also throw it in the garbage. The Etrog is also to not be burned with the rest of the chametz for the above reason. A Rav. should be consulted before you decide to anything with your Etrog.
