Hi Cross,
For the link I provided, agrar is required. If you follow the recipe on the tissue culture FAQ forum post, you need about 1 smidgen spoon of agar per 25mL of media (I have this in grams in my notebook but I wont have access to that for another 3 months).
From the product info page for the MS I gave a link to, you need 4.43 grams of power to make 1L of 'Full' MS. if you want '1/2' MS you half the amount of powder. One caveat is the vitamin dose, the Phytotech MS has 'Full' vitamins if mixed at full strength. Most carnivorous TC recopies I have found call for '1/2' MS with 'Full Vitamins', meaning if you put half the powder (to make '1/2' MS) you now have half the vitamins, Phytotech do sell the vitamins mix as a solution you can add in to top it back up to 'full'. From what I have heard, for most carnivorous plants this isn't too critical.
Hope that helps.
