Half-Ghost is NOT a human-ghost hybrid. It is a species of human with their souls (which in a normal human is located inside the body) floating externally, giving them extended life (the soul doesn't wear down due to being bound to a mortal frame) and dead-like attributes to their soulless husk body.

So youmu is an undead zombie? I can poke her all over and she won't be hurt?

No, that just applies to Myon.

Although both "Kon" (魂) and "Paku" (魄) are "soul", their elements are different. "Kon" stands for a mental soul, which is separated from a body as soon as human dies and ascends to Heaven; "Paku" is a physical soul, which remains in the body a few days and goes back to the Earth. In this case, "Kon" is Youmu's ghostly half, and "Paku" is the human half. The entire Konpaku family is comprised of half-ghost half-humans, as noted by Perfect Memento.

The Konpaku family already defy life and death, not to mention common sense and perception of reality. The natural rules of descent and relationship do not apply to them. There is only one rule that is absolute.
The Hakugyokurou must have a gardener.

Some 50 years ago Youki left his daughter at the endless staircase, never to return. Just like his father had done before him.
Youmu is still young. But when her tendons start getting stiff and her eyes get dim with age, she too will leave her offspring at the stairs.

... I think.

Canon said Youki left before his "term" was up and Youmu was left at a very young age, though.

So, Youki left before Youmu was properly hardened in preparation for her task? Is that why she's "too" soft?

To tell the truth, it also says Youki is the first Konpaku gardener, that he isn't really Youmu's father, and that he isn't even gone but just sitting in a cave somewhere with a big silly grin on his face.

Those 4 things are pretty much all the canon says about Youki.
