How to Make Tissue Culture Agar - Gelling Agent

I found a wicked talented fella in California that makes custom built cabinets for doing tissue cultures, I think he only works with mid sized to larger operations that can prove legality but he sure makes some professional looking kits anything from Mobil kits to large laminar flow hood style set ups he also has a great sterilization kit combined the larger box with all the bells and whistles goes for about 4000 usd. For another 3000$ usd he will actually fly here and do up my first batch of aseptic cultures with me (have to provide a bed and food/drive) I’ll probably try myself first but if I have problems… It’s an option . Years ago we made out own agar from potato starch for a different type of mycology project, how does pre made agar differ?
