Tucson lights up on 4-20, sales tax helps public safety By Megan McNeil | April 20, 2021 at 6:35 PM MST - Updated April 20 at 6:35 PM
TUCSON, Ariz. (KOLD News 13) -It’s a day for those who partake in marijuana to celebrate it. 4-20 is a bit of an unofficial marijuana holiday, and it’s proving good for business at dispensaries.
“Yesterday and today have been the biggest days we’ve ever had,” said Michael Crawford, CEO prime leaf dispensary.
Around 2,000 people shopped at Prime Leaf Dispensaries in Tucson Monday, and they expect around the same Tuesday as people line up to toke up. Being the first 4-20 since recreational marijuana was passed in Arizona, it’s been exceptionally busy.

As the wheels of the cannabis industry turn ever faster, new technologies continue to move from labs to dispensary shelves. For Arizonans, two new edible options are available that utilize a nano-emulsification process.
A quick science lesson: nano-emulsions are described in the National Center for Biotechnology Information as an advanced mode of drug delivery in which two liquids are combined by an emulsifying agent in the cannabis world, this includes THC or CBD oil.
And while this process can result in improved stability and consistency of the product, cannabis users may be most interested in a nano-emulsion s increased bioavailability: the proportion of a drug that is able to have an active effect on the user.
