Could This Be Spores???

Can anyone tell me if these look like spores to you. The two picked ones came from the same casing but were not covered with the black you see in the other pics. I can wipe the black off easy enough and if you look close, it appears as though there is a spore pattern on the tops. Has this happened to anyone else here?

if it wipes off as you say it is spores. next time dont wait untill the veil tears to pick.

Im still a newbie so I would get a second opinion but I dont see how those could be spores, especially that amount of spores in the little time youv probably had since the veils broke, I also dont see how they could be spores unless it was directlly underneath another shroom wichs veil has broken, But thats only my 2 cents

would the spores be able to settle on the higher shroom tops in my case? Do they float and settle, or just drop?

it looks like the shrooms that have the spores on them are sitting directly under a shroom that has a torn veil, very noticable in the pic on bottom right.

Yes they are spores, and it will happen every time if left long enough. except if the fruits are sterile, of course.

Spores can settle on a mushroom which is the tallest one in the crop, they do not have to be directly under another mushroom. Spores are so small and light they are carried on air currents, they will settle practically anywhere there is to settle in your terrarium.
