Hello Ali,
you should have the same MTU on all of them otherwise users connected to different switches can have different capabilities.
STP mode is not a related issue, an increase in MTU can be needed to support 802.1Q trunking (I suppose for the 4 additional bytes)
I would think of L2 MTU
standard : 1518
baby giant /802.1Q capable: 1522
Hope to help
