Although Planet’s native life is based, like Earth’s, on right-handed

DNA, and codes for all the same amino acids, the inevitable chemical
and structural differences from a billion years of evolution in an
alien environment render the native plant life highly poisonous
to humans. Juicy, ripe grenade fruits may look appealing, but a
mouthful of organonitrates will certainly change your mind in a hurry.

+2 labs per turn. Any Native life forms bred at this base gain a +1 lifecycle bonus.

Prevents the Planet Blight random event from causing all forests and farms within base squares to be destroyed. Instead, provides +1 nutrient per square for 10 years due to the discovery of a beneficial bacterium. Native units repair quickly.
