Germs lack growth / death factors on ( genetic ooze ) food / seeds

Edit: Germs not dying in seeds when stored in chlorine.

Apparently seeds and food are genetic ooze -  germs seem to lack any growth factors related to genetic ooze or the form genetic ooze may take. Seeds are solid - shouldn't there be a growth or death factor for germs on seeds and food accordingly? We know how it spreads to them.

One would think that germs would grow on food ( conditionally - freshness and/or exposure ) and die on seeds ( representative form - solid ). edit: This is a thing already. nevermind this.

Germs lack trait "dying on" seeds ( "solid" ) - as a result, germs on seeds persist indefinitely under normal storage conditions while other solid things have a kill counter. Storing the seeds in a storage compactor in a chlorine atmosphere doesn't kill the germs.

I have not tested storing them in chlorine - though this may ultimately be a work around - seeds are still solid are they not?

this was tested in 234418

Steps to Reproduce
Have a germy duplicant pick up and store seeds in a normal O2 environment or have them store the seeds in a compactor in chlorine atmosphere.

If you click on FULL INFO for food poisoning, you will see that germs multiply on edible and stay STATIC on genetic ooze (which is what a seed is).

A chlorine bath will disinfect them, as you suggested.

Yes, but storing them in a compactor that is in chlorine does not kill them. I had to dump them on the floor in an atmosphere of chlorine to get the bath effect. This is where the bug is. so I've edited the OP.
