Not completely sure, but they are definitely not Psilocybe semilanceata or any psychoactive species.

I found some shrooms near a cluster of P. semilanceata that look similar to these.
Only difference is the gills on the ones i found look darker, but it may just be your pic.
Some pics below if that helps (not hijacking the thread) just seeing if these pics help with ID if indeed they are the same species.

Only 4 days? You gotta realize that many of us spent weeks, months, and even years finding them. Don't give up yet. You have barely started.

Those look very similar to the op's. Def.some kind of Pan,Pan.fimicola is a possibility.

Not a problem bubbles85. so i was close an in the right area then would you say? yeah they do look very similar to the ones i found. here is a pic of my gills younger and a older one.

@Lhun sorry didnt mean to be insulting to mushroom hunters we are jus so eager to get them for Halloween here. but i must say i do enjoy being in the open fields hunting them.

Yes, your definitely looking in the right places. Two ID's above of P. olivaceus & P. fimicola. Whether thats correct or not i don't know. But both are said to be active species

I would guess Panaeolus acuminatus, hard to tell for sure without microscopy though.

@ bubbles85 glad to hear it, first two days were in woodlands hunting so just hold back till I get 100% id or would they be ok to eat?
@byrain lucky enough my gf is studying microbiology so might very well be able to get them under a microscope an get them checked[list]

If you can get them scoped, important features would the shape, size, and roughness (Or lack of) of the spores, whether the germ pore is oblique at all or not (Check the side view of the spores), the cheilocsytidia on the gill edges, and also if sulphidia is present on the gill face. If you need more info feel free to ask and also some of the TI's here may be willing to do the work when time permits if you can send out the specimens.

Yeah, you certainly wont find P. semilanceata in woodland.
I'd refrain from eating what you have here untill you know exactly what they are and even IF they are active there's not enough to trip on.
I'd get back out there and carry on the search for P. semilanceata

@ byrain ok no problem I shall pass the details on to the misuse, doesn't know when she'll be in the lab again so maybe will have to ask someone on here.
@bubbles85 learnt that the hard way must of picked hundreds those two days  Ok no problem shall not be tempted just incase. That's just the tip of the iceberg there's a whole a4 sheet covered in them.lol Will definitely keep hunting though, just hoping to get them in time for Halloween
