Lowest agar ratio and stiffness affects....?

1: What is the lowest agar ratio/percentage you can use and still get firm Agar that's serviceable for us?

2: I know softer agar can help hydrate stubborn spores, but for just day to day transfers and other uses are there advantages to using either firmer or softer agar?

You can go almost close to zero, because mycelia will grow in a 0,1% agar water solution

I guess I should specify then. What's the lowest amount of agar powder you could use and still be able to swab without feeling like pudding lol
