So I have this small tomato plant that is flowering. Should I pluck off the flower? I have another small one as well that’s doing the same.

That’s just how a tomato grow lol. First it flowers and from the flower grows a tomato. If you pluck the flower you will be killing your tomatoes. I recommend looking up a tomato growing Timelapse for reference!
5 LikesI grew tomatoes last year but I didn’t have tomatoes that started to produce on a plant under a foot small. I’m honestly worried that it’s going to break the plant.

Clip the lower stems to force growth at the top. The flower is your tomato. Don't clip it off.
1 LikeI know those are the tomatoes, I’m more worried that the tomato that grows on it will break the plant.
0 LikesYou usually put stakes in and tie the longer shoots to it for support. One should work for you right now right in the middle of the plant. Just twist tie to the stake.
1 LikeI’ll definitely do that. So I don’t have to trim anything at the moment.
0 LikesBut one question I do have, is will staking still cause double stemming?
