A glimpse into Colorado’s emerging… psychedelics scene

…the first state in America where residents can legally grow and share psilocybin mushrooms… cultivation has made botanical, easily identifiable psychedelics widely available.

There is little difference in effort between growing a small personal supply and a larger amount for friends… a gifting exchange group in the city simply because many cultivators had far more mushrooms than they knew what to do with. If residents don’t want to wait a few weeks to grow their mushrooms, they attend a public event and learn how to join an open-invite exchange group that hosts frequent gatherings… law enforcement agencies and hospitals that have jurisdiction in the most populous 10 counties in Colorado. Five of the 10 law enforcement agencies confirmed that they had not noticed any uptick in crime (four others had no opinion, and one did not respond)… A spokesman for the Denver Police Department [stated] in 2023 (and subsequently reconfirmed this year) that “psilocybin has not been a significant law enforcement issue in Denver either prior to or following the passage of Proposition 122.”
