ID Request - Psilocybe Cyanescens - PNW

I know I've been posting these requests a lot, but I am an amateur and I want to be 100 percent certain before I consume something. I am almost certain these are cyans but there was a few similar looking mushrooms I've found in this same patch and the prints were light brown / tan. Therefore I am going to print every mushroom I harvest to be sure.
These mushrooms I picked today all printed dark brown with hints of purple.
I would like to add that most of these mushrooms are pretty old. I should have harvested them about 10 days ago. They are way darker in color, they used to be caramel caps.
Habitat: Wood chips in my yard
Stem: Bruises blue
Spore print color: Dark brown, hints of purple

Congrats, and in your own yard too. Very nice.
And dude, that avatar has to be one of the funniest things I've ever seen here.

Thanks to everyone for your feedback! I feel extremely lucky. I have been searching for cyans for years. Someone once told me, "when you are ready, the mushrooms will find you". After many ages of searching, for them to show up in my yard is crazy to me. Life has such a great sense of humor.

Jah feel.
I still get that feeling every time I find a patch, even after 15 years.
Cheers.

Do you think they could grow in Charlotte, NC? I have some friends there that I'm considering sending some prints to.
