Fish tanks and beer!
And you make a strain. But get cubensis for a variety

Lots and lots of reading and research before you try anything.

You don't need Agar unless someone gave you a dirty print.

Have you grown before? I'm not saying start with the PF Tek. I personally felt besides helping you develop a good sterile technique it was a waste. I started with learning how to do grain and bulk. I never learned the PF Tek until way later. I would recommend you read your ass off, and maybe practice on a smaller grow first. It's less expensive that way until you get your Tek and sterilization down pat. I'm gonna catch alot of shit for this here, but if you don't have a PC you can find a reliable vendor who has premade jars and bags.
If you are going for bag appeal agar is a great thing to learn as you Can take your prettiest Boomer and isolate it on agar and grow Nothing but the prettiest most perfect shrooms there are. It's all a pipe dream unless you study hard and practice In this hobby it's better to start with quality rather Than quantity. It's really not just a useless saying here. Now read read read and start planning your first grow!! Good luck my friend. I've been a regular on and off here for over 6 Years , it's really a great place to learn.

That seems like a wasted print lol I've had some decent luck with quite a few MS syringes. Learning agar is by no means worthless or even unnecessary. If nothing else it furthers your mycology knowledge.

If you are trying to grow large quantities it makes way way more economical sense to drop 70 USD on a decent sized pressure cooker that can do 10 jars at a time indefinitely. Than spend 70 USD on premade bullshit that won't grow any shrooms.

While I do agree that MS grows from quality syringes of long proven varieties tend to do better than alot of people on here give them credit for, you still want agar to do quantity.
Because otherwise your going to have to buy an asston of syringes or G2G MS spawn. Buying an asston of syringes is going to be expensive and with each one the chances of hitting a bad syringe is higher. G2G'ing MS spawn is just dumb and is going to spread any skeezy shit your syringe had to all your jars. Putting all your eggs in one basket.
With agar you only need a drop of spores till you can find a clone that throws mad weight.
