Neeeeeed to know what these are. Took a spore print. Purplish/brown/black growing out off wood hips next to cyans. There are so many of these I don't want to let them go to waste. Light bruising. And they are huge. Up to a few inches across some caps.

definitely psilocybe species
allenii is likely, but maybe even something else

They bruise blue and have purple-brown spores?
They are a blueing, woodloving Psilocybe. Nobody is going to be able to tell you for certain which one from a picture. We can only tell you with relative certainty.
I rather suspect P. azurescens from the form, despite the area, but unless you want them examined microscopically, it hardly matters much and won't get you any place you aren't already at.

the 4 in the front of the last picture are the ones that strike me as friscosas
otherwise they do look a lot like azurescens too

It's probably possible, but they are rather consistently umbonate.

Yes very consistently. I am willing to donate specimens for further knowledge on them. Anyone willing/ with a microscope?

I can't take pictures or measurements with my scope lately, but I'm sure somebody would PM you if they wanted to scope them.

Watch these turn out to be P. ovoideocystidiata. Lol.

I don't think so. Because of the color and size of the cap.

Both of those fall easily within the range of the species from what I can see.

Some of these caps are almost 4 inches across tho homie. Aren't ovoideocystidiata up to 3.5 cm?

4 inches, without exaggeration?
That would be quite huge for any of the species under consideration, but you're right, in so far as the descriptions of ovoids I have read go. I have only set my eyes on one specimen of that species in person, and that was a single immature one in a collection on it's way to a myco-meeting.

I have observed psilocybe allenii easily upwards of 4+ inches, you can't really tell but these were fucking HUGE!

Maybe ill just get all these out of the ground and extract the psilocin from them. I'm planning on trying that this season. And that would be a perfect way to keep more cyans for summer!

you're going to have a far, far easier time just drying them and storing them in a cool, dry, dark place.
