Here is BulkFoodsDotCom where I got this AGAR about 2 years ago:
https://bulkfoods.com/gelling-agents/agar-powder.html
Item Number 47034
I bought 5 lbs. when I did and have not made a dent into it with just experimenting 2 years;
It really is very cool stuff to mess around with and
it only takes 1/2 Tablespoon per pint of H2O to make the right consistency.
It is mixable with Seed-Starting Mix and I'm sure also Miracle-Gro, lol;
So, relatively-hot water to begin with in a 16-ounce Pyrex measuring cup;
Add and stir-in 1/2 Tbsp;
3 minutes in center of rotating microwave and 30-second bursts from there-on;
I dare NOT look at the mic for very long other than to see progress;
As far as I'm concerned, it is very BAD for your eyes and generally-so otherwise (!);
I view that it is 'Lava Lamping' and once it foams up, I hit the STOP/Clear button;
It is a slow eruption, butt it can get ya!
Upon this event, remove from mic (200*F, mind you) and distribute into
glass(es) right away or plastic/peat/whatever *once cool enough to handle and flow*.
Plants can be inserted as soon as YOU would lay around in it, lol!
Okay, now the waiting begins! eg
