The agar itself doesn't feed the mycelium at all; it's just a suspension medium. The sugars in it are the food source.

Agar is also relatively expensive, so this would be a hilarious waste of both time and money.

Leave an agar dish out for a while and you will probably get one or two really sad looking fruits. I would save my agar for better things.
