1) [line 3] HEICHA D'LO AFIKU - in a case where they (the other twenty trees) did not produce [fruits] (and each year a different set of ten trees were the only producers of fruit. Rabeinu Chananel explains that this is possible with trees that produce Benos Shu'ach, a wild fig that ripens once every three years, and the three sets of ten trees each are staggered in their fruit production)
