Hello all,
I put the mushrooms in a ziplock bag...Hope the spores are still useful to grow mushrooms from. If anyone could help me out I would appreciate it very much 
What should I do with these mushrooms?

Dont eat them unless you are one hundred percent sure of what they are. And I have a feeling you might not know. There are toxic look alikes. The print you would get from them would be very hard to cultivate from unless you were good with agar. You should start researching the PF tek and order from a sponsor here.

They are all too old to really do anything with anyway... especially as a beginner with no background knowledge. I'd go with The Influence's suggestion and do some research around the site about how to get started with spores from a sponsor and the PF tek. GOOD LUCK

Thanks...I also collected the manure they were growing out of. I put the manure in a jar a watered it for a few days. 2 species grew...one was the goldentop identified for me. They were fairly small.

I just really want to stress not to eat them unless you are positive. If you can go back to the field and find more, take pictures of them growing out of the dung, gill shots and tops. Then take the mushroom home, cut the cap off and place on a piece of foil and let the spores drop for 12-24 hours and then take a picture of that (these will not be sterile to grow with) Then find the Hunting and Identification forum on here and post an ID request before consuming. Goodluck.

Its true, there can be some very mean shrooms out there and its always better safe then sorry. I don't think I would ever eat a shroom I found, but then again I know actives don't grow in New York so there's no reason to eat them
