Copper bacteria is an item that can be harvested from copper stromatolites and produced or cultivated in biochambers. It spoils rather quickly, rotting into copper ore. Small amounts of bacteria can be generated by processing yumako mash (in biochambers or assemblers), but larger quantities can only be produced through cultivation with bioflux. It is the only source of copper on Gleba, and bacteria cannot be produced on other planets.

Bacteria cultivation (research)

Productivity outputs for bacteria cultivation are 4 bacteria rather than the usual net gain used by catalytic recipes. Newly cultivated bacteria will always be at maximum freshness. The mash-conversion recipe can be used to automatically restart cultivation cycling if no bacteria are available.
