Mishneh Torah, Sanctification of the New Month
And likewise if the court saw that the Spring [state of the barley] has yet to arrive, but it is rather still late; and the fruit of the trees that tend to sprout around Passover have not sprouted – we rely on these two indicators and make the year a leap year. And even though the season [arrived] before the sixteenth of Nissan – they surely make it a leap year, so that the Spring [barley] will be present to offer up the waved omer from it on the sixteenth of Nissan; and so that the fruit will sprout like is the way of every Spring [season].
