Nutritional yeast.
Ummm the basic recipe I used was 10g agar 10g light malt extract 500ml water.

I tried yeast but the one I got didn't dissolve well. Not a big deal tbh look at my noob thread for plate pics. The yeast I got was a pita.
Save your $ for two 500 ml media bottles. PC ING one sleeve is ok for me but I rather pour 2 sleeves in the future. Pc run for 2 jars and anything else like tools ftw. 
Hope that halped.

LME will work just fine for anything you need it for.
Nutritional yeast adds nutrients and the myc loves it but it has the potential to go wrong. It makes the agar more cloudy with sediment. Adds more time consuming steps to your hobby.
Just use the 500ml water 10g agar LME.
You can adjust the amount of LME if you want to experiment with higher and lower nute amounts

Yes. 1 bottle is fine but since I'm a newb it took a couple of tries to get the "recipe" down for 20 plates. Not as easy as I thought it would be.
I think my first pour I undershot it by 4-6 plates. So it's probably wise to not follow Bod's 400ml water in his tek to the T.
I may have measured 450ml to hit 20 plates 100mm x 15mm
A lot of tek writers are really good at what they do so we have to take that into consideration.
Hey tiptrippy hope you are gewd!

Just to clarify.
500ml of water 10gs of agar roughly 10gs of LME
Put into media bottle
Follow BODs Comprehensive Agar Tek
Get clean sample to grain
Grow mushrooms
Am I missing anything here?

If I dont have clear lids (I only have non see thru grey ones atm) for my shoeboxes am I better off leaving the lid off during fruiting in the martha of to just let light in from the side and keep them on? I feel like its been hard to keep them from getting dry in the martha

Also (and this is important) I just noticed that while I was tripping balls last night I left my bedroom window open all day and into tonight, and a few fruit flies/gnats made their way into my room along w some misquotes. My grow is still in a martha/mini greenhouse tent and I havent seen any IN the grow itself or in my shoeboxes (at least not yet, bastards deff coulda sneaked in throu the bottom and I just havent seen them yet) but they were flying all around the martha (mostly towards the lights thou) How fucked am I from a couple of the bastards getting in? Are they gonna for sure be a problem now? I killed as many as I could but im sure a couple have gotten away from me and are in the room somewhere. Will the martha mostly stop them or do i need to do something to prevent a problem arising here?

Don't stress, they're not always an issue. I always have one or 2 buzzing around but it never gets out of hand.
Regarding lids, the light will be fine around the sides.

Would you all bother with these if you didnt have a whole lot more spawn going atm? It doesnt look ideal but is it still worth birthing into a shoebox? All 4 pics are of a different jar, all from MSS, all shaken on the 3rd of this month. Knocked up on the 16th of last.

Any green u see is just my shitty cam theres no difference in color on any of the jars, no grey or green or anything.

The last one still has uncolonized grains on top so I'd stay away from that one but the others I'd say fuck it and spawn if I didn't have much going on. It's only a few dollars worth of coir/ver and you've already got the tubs so might as well. I've spawned fairly bacterial ( looked way worse then those) jars and gotten at least 1 flush outta them.

A few of the jars seem to be doing this, ive shaken the tops a couple times but they dont seem to want to finish off the top. Would it be okay for me to dump the uncolonized stuff ontop and use the myc under it as spawn? Again I know its not ideal but if I can get at least 1 flush from them itll be worth it for me. I just dont want to cause any issues or make myself or anyone else sick with bad spawn.

I've never done it with that many uncolonized grains but I've been successful in taking out just a few that were to too stubborn. You certainly can try I'd scrape the top layer off and maybe like half an inch into where there's myc just to ease my mind a bit but like you know definitely won't be a 100% success rate. Could end up totally fine though so feel free to try it.

And to add when I was getting the top that wouldn't colonize my filters were letting to much air in and drying out the top. If your using micropore tape maybe try adding another layer.

Ohhhh I didnt even think about this! Makes a lot of sense actually I think that may be exactly whats happening. Thank u so much! I appreciate your help. If anyone wants to chime in before I spawn these to give a different opinion (like I should toss them) or to second what WyoMX has said would be appreciated.
Heres a few more pics of the same 4 jars:
