The suckers are new growth tips and will turn into new colas. I will usually pull off the new growth tips that grow beneath the branch and let any of the ones on the sides or top grow out. For a proper mainline I think you're going to want to pull off all of the growth tips before the nodes you top at.
Here is probably the most informative and thorough website I've found on topping/mainlining/manifolding:

Good luck in your grow, your plants look good!

yes those suckers will turn into colas too, just keep in mind that more colas does not mean more yield. it is a matter of wanting less, but bigger colas or the other way around.

If your just looking for mains only then pluck everything. If you want some popcorn or to leave some bud to grow up from centre do that.
All depends what your looking to do man but with plants you can pretty much shape em how you like.

What stage are my trichromes in? (see diary for photo's)Pistils are mainly brown, but judging from my photo's I'd say the trichromes are still transparent to maybe slightly milky? The pictures from my phone aren't perfectly sharp though, and it's my first growth as well, so I'm not really sure. Could anyone with a trained eye tell?4 years ago

Is This Done Flowering Early?This is supposed to be a 63-70 day flowering time, but I'm at 52 days and I can't imagine these going another 12 to 18 days. It's already throwing out a second set of pistils. What do you think, chop in the next couple days or wait?

What to do with fertilized colasI've got a few colas that were pretty clearly fertilized due to an overheating issue weeks ago... is there any disadvantage to leaving them in? Would these seeds be worth keeping? (I seem to remember someone telling me years ago that this could create feminized seeds)4 years ago

Can I defoliate?Hey guys, I was thinking about going on a mega defoliation mission tomorrow and chopping almost all the fan leaves off my plant to free up some space for the buds. Probably about 2 weeks away from harvest so is this a good idea and would it help the plant at all?Other. General questions
