    The minhag in Klal Yisroel, as brought down in the Seforim HaKedoshim, is to build your sukkah on Motzei Yom Kippur.

    Hopefully all the men here will only be reading this in the morning once the Sukkah is underway…

    Some of us have non Jewish neighbors whom we do not want to disturb with night time construction.

    For some people online, it IS the morning…

    let me guess, you’re from the US east coast…

    What if I’m too busy picking out an esrog? Or what if I’m planning to spend sukkos in E”Y but I’m not there tonight?

    One of my fondest memories is watching my father build the sukkah on motzei yom kippur. He is holding the hammer and I am holding the can with the nails 🙂 We had a beautiful sukkah.

    Seforim Hakodoshim a.k.a the Rama(624,625). There is a discrepancy brought down by the Mishna Brura.In 624 the Rama says the careful ones, which is talking about starting to build,but in 625 the Rema uses the wording of mitzvah which is talking about the completion of the sukka on the next day(tomorrow).

    I saw that if you can’t (Or won’t -my addition) build the Sukkah tonite you should learn Hilchos Sukkah. So if anybody read or posted on the Sukkah topics here in the CR you are Yotze!

    Oh, c’mon, no one here built their sukkah in the early summer?

    I distinctly remember threads where people were cooking for Rosh Hashana about that time…

    They’re probably preparing hamantashen as we speak…

    Josh 31,

    Why are you only worried about non-jewish neigbours? You must be freinds with my neighbour. I thank him every year for keeping my kids up half the night making noise.

    Building the Sukkah mainly means putting up the sechach. So wouldn’t you have to put the sechach up Motzei YK to fulfill this?

    I put up our sukkah walls before Y”K. The schach goes up on Friday, when I have time.

    Sorry.

    causing a chillul Hashem by waking up the non jewish neighbors is worse in devalue then the value of the mitzva of putting up the sukka right after yom kippur which can in truth be done any time in the daytime & prevent a big chillul Hashem which we all know yom kippur cannot be mechaper only death can forgive for chillul Hashem

    Everyone have a wonderful year & sukkos

    I prefer to put up the succah during the day as its much easier to see everything (even with lights) If for example you drop a screw, its pretty hard to find it at night, but during the day its usually pretty simple.

    Most people around me usually put it up the Sunday before Succoth or the Sunday before Yom Kippur (like this year).. So most Succas were already up before Yom Kippur
