What to do with this? (Catasetum keiki)

I would just pop off those new growths to let the plant focus growing the big on in the pot

Would you just yank them and completely destroy them or would you attempt to at least pot the one with roots up? After dettaching, is it still prudent to wait to water until roots on the main growth reach the bottom of the pot even as we get into the summer? Or is it better to just water now and let the plant try to get in as much water and fertilizer as possible during the warm season? I would look at the root system but my concern is popping out the plant and finally decimate whatever roots it has.
