 self contained growbox?

So first grow, been searching this site for months in anticipation. Im wanting to do a grow box, very small, CFL. I was wondering about feeding co2 with a vinegar and baking soda drip and cycling the air from near the light to the bottom of the box. But i don`t want any outside venting so smell wont be an issue. I know that a diy carbon scrubber would be easier, but i want to supplement CO2 anyways and dont want a carbon scrubber if i dont need it. Would this work? would i have to cool it and/or reduce humidity? a mini diy swamp cooler would help with heat, but might cause excess humidity and mold. any advice is greatly appreciated

The box is 1ft^3 with solo cup pots beneath and a 68w 2700k 4200lumen CFL above. so 1 cubic foot actual grow space. Bagseed. seedlings about a week old 4" and 2". plan to start flowering as soon as i get the box sealed up. would probably use fermentation and might turn that into vinegar for drip? maybe a rocksalt dehumidifier? air ionizer/fan cycling air throughout the box. outside air exchange only when watering and training and removing fermentation bottle for dark cycle. Are there any gaping flaws im missing?

If it is a sealed system with a constant supply of co2, and temps are staying controlled, you can make it work without venting. I wouldn't suggest it though.
