Is this Panaeolus Cinctulus?

Hey guys, so after reading a bunch I finally decided to go ahead and go hunting for the first time. Sadly the only shroom that really grows here is the Panaeolus Cinctulus.
So, I went ahead and went searching through some lawns here in southern cali. I was able to find one of the mushrooms in one lawn. Then, I found the remaining two in another lawn.
The lawns weren't new but the area is well kept and I noticed fertilizer or nutrients sprinkled on some lawns. Could be that these guys sprouted up after the recent rains that came around.
Anyway, they look like they are still young. I got a bit eager with finding some mushrooms on my first hunt and plucked them. Can someone please let me know if these are Panaeolus Cinctulus?
I am also going to try to take a spore print of all three caps but, I'm not sure if it will work with how young they look.
Thank you in advance!

Gills? Spore prints?

I have attached a few pictures of the gills. They dried out since its the end of the day already and I picked them in mid day.

I think with the pictures you put up, they're pretty much impossible to identify. If you can find some fresh ones and take some pictures in focus and hopefully with decent light, showing the top, the gills and the stipe (stem), you'll get an ID in no time.

Yeah, I was fearing the same. They looked way better when I picked them but now they just look fried. Hopefully the spore prints will come out good. Thanks for taking a look anyway.
I know a good area where there are a lot of people who own horses, and I was thinking of going up there tomorrow and looking around. Would you guys have any suggestions as to where to look in such areas? Would just walking along the sidewalk and just looking around the fence posts give results?
I'm going to take it little more seriously this time and will definitely take a ziploc bag to keep the mushrooms in. Would spraying them with water be a good idea, or is keeping them in the bags enough?

no plastic baggies, your mush will turn to mooosh.FAST! use a paper bag or a cloth one. the fungi need to bre able to breathe. i like a small tupperware or plastic tackle box, good luck.
