EDIT: Fully Automated Greenhouse.
I gave up on the computer and just built the stupid thing. I didn't end up using the buffer circuit on the A/C as it drops the temp by about 10 degrees C in a minute. Everything else I listed below still functions though. May need to add a buffer to O2 filtration so it doesn't cycle so much.

Here are the pics.

I'm setting up a fully automated greenhouse. I'm trying to program the following functions. I know how to do them using logic chips but I'm going to quickly surpass the power draw of a computer.

Here are the automatic functions I'm aiming for with chip counts. Add 4 I/O chips to read Pressure, Temperature, and CO2/O2 ratios.

Fill if pressure below 99 kPa. (Going to connect directly to base at 101 and want negative pressure to keep CO2 in.) 3 Chips
Dump pressure if greater than 100 kPa. 3 Chips
Heat control. 3 Chips
Passive A/C unit control with buffer. 7 Chips
O2/N2/CO2 balancing with two filtration kits and a volume pump for CO2 backfill. 9 Chips.
Edit: Forgot filling hydroponic planters when they get low on water. 3 Chips.

So that's 32 logic chips in total.

Is there ANY hope I could program a computer to do all these things or am I stuck with a long string of logic chips? It seems like the computer can only handle one workflow at a time.
