I've noticed a huge difference in growth rate, size and fruiting. But that's only for where I live. I tend to leave some water suckers strictly for foliage. They tend to fall over in storms easily, due to their thin p-stem, where as sword suckers are much stronger and thicker.

As far as getting the fasted strongest growth and the fruit sooner, sword sucker.
