VoodooChile is on a distinguished road
What are the chances you retain him, short and long-term? Is he simply gonna gain knowledge and skills at your expense only to move on, or is he looking to advance within you company's structure?

How much will the training benefit your business and the bottom line? If he's studying taxonomy, it might slow him down on site. Studying pests and disease, might allow him to scout on maintenance accounts and make your service more valuable.

I don't see why you should comp someone 16 days pay unless there is appreciable benefits on your end.
