It's definitely a psilocybe. Which one I would call it depends on where you live.

Sweeet. Thanks guys. never thought i'd find them just there...lol Question: if they get watered every so often, will they keep popping up all year round? Also regarding this find, amongst all these babies I made a spore print and found 1 a little different from all the Sub spore prints I have seen... Really weird, check this out:

Subbs? I assume you mean subs. Subbs generally refers to pan. subbalteatus (= pan. cinctulus), while subs refers to psilocybe subaeruginosa.

They are Psilocybe subaeruginosa, not Panaeolus cinctulus, just to clarify.
I'm assuming the OP is in Australasia.

Incase the picture is too fuzy to see, the bottom cap located in that picture (small 1) has a blue ring surrounding the spore print. Would that mean that its like super strong?
P.s. This find was made in northern suburbs of melbourne in australia.

The blue ring is an oxidation product of psilocin. It's hard to tell how potent they will be by looking at them, I think. You'd need to do a chemical analysis.
Or a biological one.

When choosing between a mushroom and a nit, I'll pick the latter first

I meant psilocybe Subs not pans but i didnt realise i put two b's in there. Looks like they were transplanted there. Maybe ur neighbor on the other side of the fence has a ton in his back yard and there spreading over.

was there really a debate?
those pics by psybertron show the blue liquid stain vividly. 
here are some prints from this last season that still show the blue stains on paper. not as vivid as psybertron's but they've been stained for a few months now.

Hahaha yer the thought about having entheogenic neighbours is not far fetch. One last question, is it possible to make them grow all year round by watering them every so often, or is it like a season think. The fact that they are right up against a high timber fence, not much direct sunlight falls on that side of the fence.

Humidity is not the only factor. Day an night temperatures also play a part.
