In the spirit of the Holiday today I've always been curious if there are any operators of short term or vacation rentals that are specifically or intentionally serving the 420 community? Obviously there are many states with vacation destinations that have also passed cannabis legalization, interested to hear if anyone is marketing themselves as a "420 friendly" rental? In my mind there would be an interesting niche here especially if the host provided essentials like glob mops, iso, trays, papers, etc.
Probably not. Weed today is a far cry from weed in the 70's. Much more potent and people tend to mix fentanyl in it. And people lose track of their stuff, it falls on the floor, gets left in the carpet, and takes only two grains to kill. You would not even know it had been mixed in because it is so tiny. Weed from the 70'd maybe, weed from today, not on anyone's life.
Why is fentanyl so dangerous?

- In 2020, there were 56,000 overdose deaths due to synthetic opioids like fentanyl. These deaths rose by over 56% compared to 2019 and accounted for more than 82% of all opioid deaths.
- Adulterated drugs bought on the streets or online are often laced with fentanyl leading to overdose deaths. Because of its potency and low cost, drug dealers have been mixing fentanyl with other drugs including heroin, methamphetamine, counterfeit pills, cocaine, or crack, increasing the likelihood of a fatal interaction.

People tend to mix fentanyl into cannabis? Where did you get this information?
From the recovering drug dealer I tried to help, when I hired him to work on my fix & flip. Very nice guy, talented, but got hooked. I had to fire him when he relapsed. His associate who also worked for me, a recovering drug user and former customer of his, who is now clean, spotted the merchandise & complained to me and wouldn't work if he stayed on the job. In the aftermath of the cleanup we found his little stashes. He confessed, apologized and said you only need a couple of grains in a joint and off you go.

Since July, Connecticut has seen nearly 40 drug overdoses across the state that officials believe are linked to marijuana laced with fentanyl. In Plymouth, the police department tested a sample of marijuana they collected at an overdose scene, and found that it contained fentanyl.

What is fentanyl?
https://nida.nih.gov/publicati...
The illegally used fentanyl most often associated with recent overdoses is made in labs. This synthetic fentanyl is sold illegally as a powder, dropped onto blotter paper, put in eye droppers and nasal sprays, or made into pills that look like other prescription opioids.
Some drug dealers are mixing fentanyl with other drugs, such as heroin, cocaine, methamphetamine, and MDMA. This is because it takes very little to produce a high with fentanyl, making it a cheaper option. This is especially risky when people taking drugs don’t realize they might contain fentanyl as a cheap but dangerous additive.
