You should train Garnet to get a few summons before they're taken by Zorn and Thorn. I did/am doing this in my most recent play through. My pro tip is to train against the Mandragoras by Quan's Dwelling near Treno---but after visiting Treno to get the racket for Garnet that is wind-embued. Mandragoras are weak to wind and her physical attack rivals Marcus' for those battles. They are still tough battles until you've gained a few levels, but the experience they give you is fantastic. Once you unlock the first summon (Ifrit?) it can knock out an entire group of three. But that's not very useful as then you can't heal without using a tent immediately after. The important thing is to stack your attacks and launch them all together after your target Mandgragora has done an attack. Their scream move does damage based on how much HP they have lost. It does nothing if you haven't hurt them, and can kill you if you have. You need to kill one each turn.
