probably something like lowryder but you can control plant size with the size of your pot. If you want a little plant get a little pot, you might want to try a couple different size pots to try and dial in the plant size you want. Also consider only using low nitrogen ferts/ nutes if you use them.

How small do you want? DSCF2242.jpg Auto Moscow on left rear and the other 3 are Sugar Mango Ryders all a few weeks from harvest. Keep in mind that this was a test grow and under heavy stress by my own design and grown totally in the AeroGarden. This next pic DSCF2252.jpg is my current grow, a Dutch Passion Auto Blueberry 35 days from sprouting in a WaterFarm. The plants in the AeroGarden were fed once a week and topped off with fresh tap water as needed. The other one gets the same treatment. Differences? The group had to all share the ferts, and had limited root space. I use only tap water, I can't afford or need any RO or high-filtration units cuz SSI don't pay enough.

So, you can regulate the height but at a cost.

In case you're thinking about Lowryder 2, I just want to add that Lowryder 2 has potential to become pretty big. I put mine in a 1 gallon smart pot with the intention of keeping the size down, but it's far from the little 12"-16" tree with a main cola and 4 nice side branches I was hoping for. I'm guessing I should have went with a smaller pot, lol.

just top them at the second node so they make a Y delays harvest a week or 2 and then lst your 2 tops down will stay 2 foot or so a wide shallow pot will help keep them short with more plant sticking up
