For support it was already mentioned, the bamboo stakes. In my area I could only find 6 ft lengths, so I got those and cut them in half and do a single stake per plant. For holding I personally use pipe cleaners. The fuzzy outside of them makes sure they're not rough on the plant and they're super cheap. I cut the regular length ones in half or thirds and then use them like twist ties (making sure there's extra room so it's not squeezing the stalk).

Well, one of my plants is beginning to get a little top heavy, and it still has about 5 weeks to go. I am wondering if I should get a small tomato cage or something for it? Or is there something else folks can recommend, and share how to set up? It is an untrained Chemdawg 4, as shown here:

It is only 18" tall, and looks somewhat straight in that picture, but if you turn the pot to a different angle, you'll see it is leaning quite a bit.

I didn't prune all the fan leaves off. She isn't trained or modified in any way... she's just tall and lanky. My cat nibbled on a few leaves, but nope, no defoliating. The other one I am growing is much more compact (different strain). This plant is, at most, 18" tall, and 5 weeks into flower, so not getting any taller -- just getting more top-heavy.
