You need to be very careful with wild-gathered spores. Yes, it is easy to grow Galerina either in a rose garden or even inside using Psilocybe growth paramaters. If you are collecting wild ones, check for blue bruising, purple/black spore print and a separable pellicle, if you find ALL THREE it is highly likely that you have a psilocybin/psilocin producing mushie. If you have someone available that can double check your research all the better.It only takes a few Galerina to kill an average adult.
If you are collecting swipes, this can also be dangerous, I have seen both psilocybe and poisonous growing amongst each other and as spores tend to collect on top of the caps, is possible to get poisonous spores while you are after others.
