Pretty much and it also works as a insulating pot to keep the root network slightly warmer, as the roots growth and the microbes and crap doing what they do creates a very minor amount of heat but if that heat is contained it can help root growth (or at least it's a theory...I need to have a controlled experiment to find out.)
the floor of my grow box is lined with 1" foam (used from an old project) for that exact reason. it works great!
Well it is hard to tell will take better pics in a day or two but all of them are developing their first little hairs.... aww... little gimpy plants are going to make something for me no matter what.
And here is this quirky beast I have been lightly supercropping but I need to find a way to do lst in a smart pot as the effects during veg were magnificient so a combo of the two if done sparingly will be interesting. I am pretty happy with how many budsights this little plant has and I have been keeping it pretty uniform so it has been trying to develop mostly tasty top colas for me. Yup I dunno how long it has been but not long I don't think and already I see the first signs of buds, seen it a thousand times but never gets old. 
let the buds begin!!!!!!!! i use thin insulated solid core wire that i have left over from some garage door openers. it's 20awg i think... that works awesome. you want something that bends very easy, the plant isn't that strong to bend it open. you could make small anchors in soil using bent coat hangers or other strong wire then tie string to them. just my $.02Thanks for the compliment bro!... now for a quick update.

Now... what do you guys use for LST? I need to tie this girl down soon as she may overgrow her speaker box and would like some suggestions.
there is always the dollar tree hat!
haha it was worth a shot! (so far so good on my hat by the way)
no brotha, i've never even heard of glucose injections. this tomato plant started off as an unknown seedling that was growing on a rag in the kitchen! i planted it, used my weed growing skills to bring it up, and now it's got tomatoes and it's overgrowing my living room lol! i live in an apartment, so i have no outdoor space to put it!! there are two maturing tomatoes (medium size) on it.... and i'm trying the cloning because i can't keep that huge plant much longer haha... how do you inject glucose? straight into the tomatoes?
