On the street, Psychedelic Mushrooms are sometimes referred to as caps, shrooms, boomers, or magic mushrooms. According to our New York Psychedelic Mushrooms Possession Lawyer staff, there are over 190 different types of mushrooms that can produce a drug-like effect. Under federal law, the active ingredient in each of these types of mushrooms (chemicals Psilocybin and Psilocin) are listed as a Schedule I drug, due to the abusive nature and because mushrooms are not approved by the Food and Drug Administration for medical use.

Although some individuals believe they can grow the mushrooms for personal use, it is still illegal under federal law and you can be charged with a federal drug crime.
