I would have better pictures of the first set in a full cluster as we picked it, but my horrible phone crapped out on me. Should I seperate the cluster into singles to air dry?

Spore prints are coming; the caps are sitting on white paper as we speak.

Stop going around, picking up random LBM's and going "Woot, they dis
magick!!".

:huxleyfacepalm:

Please, I hope to god this is an epic troll that has went all this way for the luls.

The second one looks like a Psathyrella species. What were the first ones growing from? The substrate is really important. It's not enough to know that they were poking out of leaves, it's more important what was underneath the leaves.

Looking at the greenish/grey gills and yellow-ochre cap, I'd venture to satsay they are something akin to Hypholoma fasciculare for number one.

Was the stem pretty tough?. I found it easier to remove the cap from the stem than the stem from the ground when I found some.

Yes, that's what I thought as well. I just wanted to know what they were growing from. Usually you will find them growing from rotting tree stumps, but I've seen them growing from what seemed to be just dirt and grass:

Pretty sure #1 is Lacrymaria velutina.

The ones I found were growing from very well decayed wood and were nigh terrestrial looking. The primary reason I knew a decaying pine stump had been there as there were also Ganoderma and a Pluteus species growing in the same little area.

Should I treat as poisonous and toss? There was a large cluster of them. I count nine, with two small pins. They were amidst fallen tree bark chunks, the tree is alive, though.

It could be L. velutina by the way he decribed the print and stem. But OP didn't mention the fine pubescence upon the pileus, which I figure would be noticeable. :shrug:

Was the cap fuzzy OP?

Also, you think it possible we could get a picture of your spore print?

Hey aeromast, you should really try to get a hold of a better camera and get familiar with its macro mode. It seems like you are into fungi, so trust me. It's very wisely invested money.
Always try to get a pic of the mushroom in it's habitat (not too close-up), detailed shots of cap from the top and stipe and cap from the side, lamellae and the very base of the stipe as well.
Check the pictures you take against what you see. If the colors are off, either adjust on your camera (RTFM) or go postproduction with an image manipulation software.

On second look, they have gills /unattatched/ from the stem.. Or attatched further up than I can see.

I edited the first post to reflect this.

#2 are Bolbitius vitellinus pretty sure.  Or something similar.
From the bottom at least, #1 looks like Leratiomyces percevalii.

Thats my best guess, as its been stated - better pictures help immensely. :wink:

Leratiomyces percevalii doesn't grow in Maryland.
