Does the type of base grain malt used in making starter wort matter?

Brewing a wheat based beer (50% pilsen malt, 50% wheat) and I overshot my sparge volume. So now I have an extra gallon of 1.030 sg wort that I plan to boil down to a sg around 1.040 to use as starter wort for a yeast starter. Will it really matter that this is a mixture of pilsen and wheat instead of 2-row for the yeast starter? Will it affect anything about the yeast?

Not a big deal if you decant the starter wort before pitching the slurry, and 1.030 wort is perfect for starters. 50% wheat in your small volume of starter isn't going to radically change the yeast you grow on it, they'll still reproduce and be ready for pitching.

Thanks for the answer. I like to try to get everything I can from my grain once I have the target gravity and volume for the beer.
