I went for a walk today in a known spot near Devonport where mushrooms grow. I'm inexperienced with this so Im still not 100% sure about what to pick. But I found this selection and was hoping someone could help me ID them.
They were all found growing amongst Eucalyptus leaf mulch, on a cool day of about 12-14c
I did find a few others but the pics are out of focus and I ran out of natural light, I'll re-shoot and add them tomorrow.
Thanks!

Only the second pic look like subs, make sure to double-check that blueing and get purple-brown prints from all of them. Next time you're hunting, don't take the undeveloped pins..
The rest are a big mixed bunch

Thanks undergrounder. I suspected those from the second pic to be the most likely out of the lot too. They're all showing bluish bruising, and I'll leave them overnight for spore prints.
The undeveloped pins - I hadn't given this much thought before, but I guess they spread the spore on the ground when they open and by taking unopened ones I've just stopped a whole new patch from growing. Oh damn, I feel bad about this, I'll certainly be more careful next time.
Cheers!

yeha man its cool, it won't make too big a difference anyway, but it gives other hunters a go when the pins grow up as well..

I'll just put it down to experience, or lack thereof!
I checked the spore prints after 6-7 hours and they are definitely purple.
I'm so glad I picked some winners. This is my first time, after a failed attempt last year when I went too late in the season. Now I know what to look for, where and when to look for them. I'll probably go again in the next few days and collect some more.
Thanks to you guys, and this excellent site.
Cheers!

I kept the subs from pic 2 and chucked the rest. I sampled a few a couple of nights ago - all good!! Looking forward to having a session on the weekend.
Thanks for your help.
