It's an active Psilocybe, but I'm not sure which one. Wait for more opinions.

Yes, Psilocybe allenii.

The leaves in the background are Quercus agrifolia.

Spore print is dark brown / purple brown and the bruising is more apparent now.

I've collected many (307g) and left many pins in the ground to mature. Now the question is how long should I wait before I go back for the pins?

I'd wait at least a day or two after a good soaking, whether that is rain or irrigation.  I've seen allenii blow out to full size quickly once they have the moisture.  Not a lot of experience with watching allenii patches mature so take this advice with a grain of salt.

Also make sure to cut off those stem butts you collected and bury them in other suitable looking habitats or other sections of the same place you got them.  It will pay dividends down the road.

Twice a week is a good interval for picking.

You can let them get significantly larger than that and they'll make a lot more psilocybin, looks like you picked them when they were half grown.  I would just pick the biggest ones and come back for the rest in a few days.

Also you have a lot of stem bases there - don't wast them, plant them in fresh wood chips.  A good way to do it is to plant them in all the wood chip patches that are on the way from your house to this patch, that way next year when you are going to the patch you'll have lots of other ones to harvest on the same route.

Yeah, I was wondering about the right time to pick them. Two things really influenced my decision: first, these were found in a super conspicuous place and I was afraid that they would be exterminated by park maintenance workers; second, many were starting to be eaten by critters and I was worried about their welfare. Ok, three things -- I was also somewhat impatient because this is only my second real find.

Re: stem butts. Is it better to pull the mushroom as I have and replant the stem butt, or to use scissors to remove it above the stem butt?

Today is our first real rain here in the bay area and the weather predicts another two days of it. I'm hopeful that this weekend and next week will be a good time to find patches, and as I have already collected more than I will use in the coming year, my interest at this point is really just in observing and learning.

It is better to pull with the stem butt and replant the butt in fresh wood chips.

Use scissors.
It allows the stem butt to rot back into the patch. Feeding the patch.

Pull a few out to use the stem butts, you don't need 100 stem butts to start your own patch.

Go purchase a bag of alder chips. Make a patch in a big planter in your yard, no risk of people messing it up!

That's what I do, I don't like ripping up a bunch of mycelium, but I do replant some in other places and if I don't have a place handy I just use scissors.
