LC the "Real" way

There are many good teks for making LC's, but I'm reading that the novice metods such as Karo and honey are inferior to methods such as malt, detrose, etc.
Can some of you veterans out there tell me what is the best, most effective LC method that you use?

Are all dry LME the same? Beer supply stores carry many different kinds. When you say agar, do you mean agar agar, or do you mean pot or malt agar?

Honey LC worked great for me. From MS syringe to thick floating clouds of mycelium in just a few days, no contams!
PS: Here is the preferred "Red Rocket Dog Milking" method for extracting dog sperm LC (starts at 30 seconds): RED ROCKET!

I prefer the Grain LC by Agar. It's way better than growing mycelium in sugar water. Grains are much for effective for growing mycelium, and you will automatically get a clean LC from a fully colonized jar of grain.

I order it off ebay.. Bought the malt and dextrose there.. I think I got 5lbs of each.. So it will last me a really long time.
