<p>You're right-- I thought it was y peah. But obviously not. A number of years ago I tired to discover when the first mention of looking at many esrogim was. I remember looking at the yerushalmi and its commentaries and thought it was there --obviously not.
Now I have no idea-- <br>

Where in that halacha is this? I couldn't find it, and also searched <br>
