So I am totally new at this but I have read up a bunch of stuff on the site about mushrooms and have really gotten into them. I really want to try a psychadelic mushroom but at the same time I just want to see as many kinds as I can :]
Anyways I was looking in a local cowfield through all the manure and couldn't find a thing, I thought I heard a truck coming so I ran towards the fence, while running I stumblede across these 2. Let me note that they were near manure, but not growing from it. Any luck this could be psychadelic?

Habitat: Growing in the middle of a pasture from a patch of grass. Saw manure near by but the mushrooms weren't growing out of it as far as I know.
Gills: I'm not that great at this but the gills are a darkish brown color and fairly moist.
Stem: About 2.5 inches and one stem was thin. The other was thicker with a bulge in the middle of the stem. White.
Cap: White and moist.
Spore print color: I just read how to do these so I haven't got this yet, but I will try to get it up soon.
Bruising: As far as I can tell it's not bruising.
Other information: Scent is v

Are you sure? It seems as if Psathyrella is more dome shaped than this one. These are almost flat, with just a little curve

Yes I am sure. If I wasn't sure I would say "maybe Psathyrella".
Psathyrella starts out dome shaped and many species expand to plane as they mature.
