Help IDing this mushroom (a psilocibe cubensis?)

Hello there fellow shroomers! I'm here requesting a little bit of help in idenifying these mushrooms. The general color and form seems to fit the description of the psilocibe cubensis species, which supposedly the most readily available in my country.
Thanks beforehand! Here is all the information I can provide you:
Images:



Habitat: The Shroom was found in "Chalatenango", El Salvador, the area is quite template given that it is one of the highest points in the country, though still tropical. More specifically, it was found in cow dung, in a pastureland. We have been in "winter" for a couple of months now (winter here basically means rainy seasons, cold while raining and in the nights, but quite hot in the afternoon as a byproduct of the humidity).
This general area, as far as I have heard, is one of the best in the country to find "magic shrooms" (psilocibe cubensis), though this is not a mushroom-consuming culture, so there is not an overabundance of information. At least, there are official records of the presence of the psilocibe species within the country and in this area.
I cannot give more specific information, as I did not get the shrooms directly.
Gills: It has gills. The non-spore filled color seems to be grey. The spore seems to be a brownish black color.
Stem: The lenght of the largets stem is of 13cm, and the shortest of 5cm (the one in the photo is the largets one). All of them have the remanants of the veil. It's diameter is of about 1.3 cm in the biggest one, and of 1cm on the smaller. The color is white, with some brownish areas.
The texture is solid, no hollowness within the stem, and relatively thick.
Cap: The diameter of the shroom in the picture is of 7.5cm aprox. The color is of a pale brown at the center, getting progressively white as it radiates out, finally getting a dirtish white on it's outer parts.
It has a spherical form ( though more leveled or disc-like) and concave. The texture is kind of sponge-like though still solid.
Spore print color:

The color seems to be a black with a little bit of brown. It has the form of the gills (straight lines) radiating from the center.
Bruising: This is probably for me, the most preocupating data. Not any of the bruised parts, of any of the mushrooms has gotten any specific (maybe a little yellowish in some bruised locations) coloration, specially not the so desired blue.
Other information: The mushroom doesn't seems to have any kind of odor, at least not any distinctive one. As stated before, it was taken directly from the cow manure, in rainy season. As far as my information goes, the only available species of psicodelic shroom in my country is the psilocibe cubensis. The person who got this shrooms assures me that he has taken them before with clear effects, though I could not ask much about this, I don't have any specific reason to doubt, nor can I say that I have much reason to trust it's judgment either.
In the phots, the mushroom should already have at least 12 hours since it was taken.

I see, what a shame, I was eager to try them. So what are the discrepances? That might give me better parameters for the next time.

The cap colour is more or less uniform and there are also small scales on the cap which cubensis don't have
