Farm Experiments! Thank You, Experts, But Let Me Discover Things Myself!

When I posted photos and videos of EVIARC Sweet Jackfruit Seedlings bearing fruits, skeptics and Doubting Thomases labeled it as a hoax.
When I came up with more proofs of seedlings carrying fruits and they were convinced that it was real, they became silent.
Ang nag-ingay naman ay ang so-called experts who said that it was wrong to allow young seedlings to bear fruits.
They said the rootstock could not supply the needed nutrients to complete the fruiting and that the fruits will just fall off.
Others said it will stunt the growth of the seedlings and these will die early.
While I appreciate their advices, I would like them to understand thst as a farmer, I want to discover things myself.
I have thousands of seedlings and I can afford to lose 20 if only to see for myself the results.
Okey naman yong advice ng experts but if I have to rely on their dogma, how could I discover new technology or new things?
Remember that thousands of years ago, experts said the world was flat until it was discovered that it was spherical or almost round.
What is true today, according to experts, may not be true one hundred years from.
Let us keep discovering and experimenting because that is what makes the new day exciting.
