Tomato suckers

Using 275 watt hid. I keep the light just 24" from grow unit so I tie the branches down. I let just enough suckers develop to have eight branches (any more is unmanageable). I realize that alot of people remove all suckers so that there is only the main branch but they are not using artificial lighting. I wonder about doing that in my system since the main branch is always the most prolific. Would it be even more efficient if I just wind the main branch around the grow area? Sure would be less work not having all those branches to retie all the time.
