Pictures 3-4 look like bolbitius titubans
Not sure on pictures 1-2
Neither are psilocybe semilanceata.
-------------------- Favorite quote: I want to know if they are active and magic or not. And if they are not active, can i pick them before they are active and then they will become active or do they have to grow till they activate?

Hello, themushie, Not going to be a prick about it, but you're not even close. Picture 1/2 is entirely the wrong shape Picture 3 is the wrong colour Picture 4... Well see above.
There's more to finding these than just the nipple, indeed, the nipple is often quite misleading as , say a semiglotoba might have a similar nipple, and similar coloured gills, but it just doesn't look the same.
For my money, I'd say that you're looking too early. Wait until the temperatures, the temps are literally all important. Apologies if this comes across arsey, I'd just prefer you wait two weeks or so and not poison yourself.

Im taking all caution and its my first year hunting am excited and I'm seeing it go dark earlier every night which means one thing, fall is coming! temperatures are dropping rain is falling the sh-rooms are coming but the fact they cut there grass almost everyday is preventing anything from happening.

Perhaps, I just had a look at the liverpool weather report- The nighttime temperatures are far too high. Possibly if you go up a mountain, since you're right next to north wales and all you'd be on to something- FInd rough ground, plenty of sedge grass, north facing slope, quite high up and you could find something. Good luck. I'm by no means an expert, but I will tell you this. Study pictures of the mushroom and its habitat until they are engrained in your eye. When you find your first one you'll wonder how you were ever able to believe others looked like it. There's a great picture guide on here somewhere, I'll try finding it now for you.
