Dried Mushroom ID Request - Psilocybe?

Since I am new to this, I sift through the mushrooms after they are dried. When picking, I believed that these mushrooms were P allenii.
However, some of the mushrooms look different once dried. Can someone much more knowledgeable than me confirm?
Habitat: Picked in wood chips all in the same apartment complex, but different patches. Patches and solitary fruit can be up to 2 blocks apart. San Fran bay area.
Gills: tan to dark brown.
Stem: some are flimsy once dried, while a few are quite sturdy once dried.
Cap: tan to reddish brown
Spore print color: not available
Bruising: blue on all but 2 of them. according to my perception anyway...
First up:
I am concerned about mushroom 1 and 2. The gills are not as dark as 3 which match most of the other mushrooms. I'd really like to know what people think of 1, as it appears that part of the stem is already mixed into my stash. 3 is what I consider the most common and is used as a comparison.
Second up:
 4,5, and 6 are really MUCH sturdier than the other mushrooms once dried. Also, they are darker and redder than the rest of my mushrooms. 7 is what I consider the most common and is used as a comparison.
I'm probably being overly paranoid. I really appreciate everyone who responds. That second opinion and peace of mind is priceless!
Thank you!!!

I haven't found my legs yet in hunting and identification either, so I have been spore printing everything, and comparing colors. Number 1 does look a little orange in the stem though could be lighting. Number 2 has bluing looks fine to me. Wait for TI tho

Personally I think they are all good but I would wait for TI.

I think all are Psilocybe allenii, but if you have any redder ones that don't blue they are Leratiomyces ceres and could cause a slightly unpleasant night if too many are eaten.
