I always buy the jumbo size, my stems get way to big for the regular sized ones,even with the jumbo I have to remove them from the lower portion of the plant, they'll hinder growth if I don't, some stems get to be 2-1/4" in diameter.
I use the clips on everything. You're going to need to let more than 2 leaders grow or you'll severely limit the production with cherry type tomatoes.
