Typically the biggest/strongest one is a genetic clone of the parent plant in polyembryonic mangoes. It will produce identical fruit to the one it came from. The others are the result of pollination and may or may not produce desirable fruit. Do with that what you will, what your goals are will determine what to keep. One thing is for sure, they won’t all survive potted together. You also have to consider that separating them may do enough root damage to kill one or more of them. If you’re really set on keeping one specific plant over the others, it’s best to just clip the other stems at soil level.
