To be real, I didn't find much information about this, and there are probably better methods, but honestly, I find it impressive how potent the nerve gas from rotten potatoes can be if whole 4 people passed out by surprise and died.
In theory, all you need is tons of potatoes (cheap) and a sealed room (the most difficult part, since you need a bathroom for living).
Alternatively, you could possibly rot the potatoes in a giant bag or some other sealed container. However, I don't know what the shelf-life for a death trap like this would be, I don't know it the chemical breaks down to something else over time due to other chemicals. Also, my GUESS is that the amount of air in the container would bottleneck the amount of toxic gas created, so that when opened and spread to a room it might not be enough. I don't know how long exposure you need to actually die. Maybe you could use it like an exit bag. Potato exit bag.
You would need more information on how to properly rot them. In the worst case, due to unknown factors they might not be rotten enough and potent enough to completely kill you. With the right equipment, experimenting on how to get best results could provide information that would last forever for others to use.
The smell would be pretty yucky though. But so is the taste of N as far as I've read.
