I don't know what to call what I do. I explained it earlier.... I have a big clear tote and I let it hang off the ledge just enough for me to reach under and do my work with the stuff on The table. This worked twice for me but the last attempt went bad.

Put holes in the tub. Use a big can and heat it up. It stinks but you only have to do it once. Reaching under is certainly fucking up your technique.

i recommend common sense and figuring it out.
These are the TEKs I use. They're all as cheap and easy as possible, just like your mom.

I thought this too. When I started cultivating there wasn't as many people doing the no-pour thing.
I started doing agar 1 month ago and I have like, 75 plates going. I've got biopsy LC, master jars colonizing, and tons of plates with clean mycelium to keep going. I do a variation of no-pours but using mostly 125mL jars instead of the plastic containers that the pasty plate tek uses. I do use some plastic containers but prefer jars.
I've been using malt extract agar premix that I bought on Amazon for a decently good price
tl;dr agar isn't actually difficult, it is intimidating, but it will only improve your mycology skills and it can easily be done in a SAB, no need for a flow hood. any newb can pull it off.
On the site I deal with I've seen that they sell a big jar of LC.... apparently you can put 5cc in there and the mycelium grows and it says it can do 40 jars or 12 bags. That seems great but I was skeptical. What is this form called like the proper tek name for that. Also they sell premade agar plates, was considering buying some to try the agar method first then if I'm successful make all my own..... I've done spore prints and made my own syringes by letting the spores drop into vials of sterile water and sucking up into sterile syringe which was extremely easy, so I might as well learn agar... I don't mind jars to innoc and grow, but I would much rather innoc 3lb bags since I like the monotub grows better then the cakes in the fruiting chamber... so that LC jar or agar would save me a lot of hassle I believe.

Go to a brewing store in town and get light malt extract and make your own LC. You should be able to make enough to inoculate thousands of bags/jars for cheap. You can also then use the malt extract with agar agar or agar powder and make an agar solution for doing plates.
Do you own a pressure cooker?
I would suggest just trying agar yourself first off. If you buy premade stuff to practice you still may fuck it up when you go to do your own and have to mix it up yourself. You can do it for very cheap. buying premade stuff off websites is usually impractical if you wanna do bulk properly.
I'm in Canada so I find it highly likely the USA amazon website will also have premade agar mix that you just need to mix with water and heat up before pouring into jars. That's what I'm using because I got 100 grams for like $15

No I don't have a pressure cooker. It's the last big thing I need besides a hood. I've had really good luck just buying the premade spawn bags. It's mixed grain 3lbs 2 bags for 25$ I put each in a monotub and got 65g dry from tub 1 and 78g dry from tub 2 first flush so I really can't complain, not having a pressure cooker sucks.... should I buy a stove top one or one you plug in ??
