Central California Coast (Pismo Beach Area) ID Request
    #26413419 - 01/02/20 10:40 PM (4 years, 26 days ago)

Habitat: I found a small patch of mushrooms in the heavily mulched front yard of a house within a couple miles of the ocean. It was all confined to about a square meter of space. The smaller ones, though they didn't bruise blue, had a very deep purple brown color to the spores. This is my first year hunting, and thus far I've been unsuccessful, but I'm hoping for the best. I edited this post as Alan Rockefeller said the larger ones are an agrocybe. I am still curious if anyone knows what the other ones are. I’ve found many different Psilocybe look alikes, and these ones really stuck out to me. They really had that look except they didn’t bruise blue.
 
Where does it grow? mulched woodchip beds within a few miles of the california coast. The area is just inland from pismo beach. There is a picture of the two larger ones and that is the same location as where the others were found.

Gills: tannish to light grey


Stem:
Fairly solid stems. whitish in color and mostly about 2 inches long and 1/4-1/2" diameter.

Cap:
cream/beige colored caps 

Spore print color:
I'm new to this, but it really looks pretty purple/brown to me.

Bruising:
I didn't notice any bruising which is one aspect that made me question my identification of these as psilocybe allenii.

Agrocybe putaminum, or if it has a ring on the stem, Agrocybe praecox.

Those are not from the psilocybe family. Do not eat those. Allenii's bruising will be a very distinctive feature. I see no signs of blue. Allenii's are wood lovers and very closely related to psilocybe cyanescens and psilocybe azurescens aswell as others.

What about the smaller ones with the purple/brown print?  They had a completely different look and print.

I think you might have some Psathyrella in there too, perhaps P. candolleana.

If you want better identification you'll have to provide pictures of at least one intact specimen, including pictures
of the cap, gills and stem in its entire length (pulled out of the ground, not cut or broken).
Making safe id's from all torn and broken mushrooms in a heap like this can be a bit risky.
