So I found this fairy ring near an urban intersection in someones yard. I doubt they pesticide it. Are these Campestris? Pink gills a little brown oven mark on the cap. I don't know if there's other mushrooms beside agaricus that have pink gills? Are they safe to eat? Have you ever seen such a dense fairy ring they were just smashed together.
Also, the mushroom bandit strikes again with this funked up puffball and its little brother. I also found some puffballs that had a really rough texture in someone's little sidewalk garden and they smelled disgusting like mold. These beauties smell great though. Is the fucked up one normal? It's like it got split and just kept going.

They are Agaricus. A. campestris doesn't usually have that much veil though. Check the odor and for any staining reactions.

No odor really. No staining. Beautifully white flesh. Stems pop off easily and are downy inside. Is it safe to eat from urban yards?

I didn't eat any of them.. Kinda sad, but I don't want to get sick or pestiscided or motor-oiled. So for some reason these rings are just all over suburbia. We drove around aimlessly and one neighborhood had three seperate houses that had huge flushes of agarics. One was yellow staining with cream gills and caramel spore print the rest chocolate brown and pink gills. Is there a sure fire way to tell if you can eat them cause I want to try them out and they are everywhere. I made a big spore collage if you want to see lol.

If they don't stain yellow as with xanthodermus and don't smell bad when they are cooked i think that is as good as it gets.

You don't have to worry about pesticides or motor oil, mushrooms filter those things out.
The surefire way to tell if Agaricus is edible is to scratch the hell out of it, especially near the stem base, breaking as many cells as possible. The toxic ones will smell like ink / chemicals.
Some people can't smell that odor though, and other people have allergic reactions to otherwise edible species. Pretty much surefire though, usually.
