Hello all, I found a batch of mushrooms outside my house this morning and was wondering if anyone can identify this strain. I do not believe they are psychedellic, but would like a firm answer from a more experienced hunter. Thanks in advance!!
Habitat - South Florida (high humidity), found on St Augustine grass under picnic table in morning, grew overnight. approx 19' above sea level.
Characteristics of the gills - attached, light brown gills Characteristics of the stem - 1-2", 1-2mm diameter, hollow, thin, off -white color (length, diameter, color, texture, hollow/solid, thin/thick, etc) Characteristics of the cap .5-1" light brown smooth top with fine lines, (convex I think) Spore print color -- unknown, don't know how to take a print Mushroom bruises - none Scent - none that I noticed
See attached pics...

The spoor print process is all over this sight and is as easy as blowing your nose!
The mushrooms you have there look as they would drop a rusty brown spoor..
I would say its a Conocybe.. It would be in your best interest to trash them!
Oh ya and this is freaking funny as hell..... What is it?
Characteristics of the stem - 1-2", 1-2mm diameter, hollow, thin, off -white color (length, diameter, color, texture, hollow/solid, thin/thick, etc)
Is it hollow or solid? Is it thick or thin?
This is not a multiple choice test!

*site
And I agree it is some sort of Conocybe.
As for a spore Print, just cut the stem off with some scissors or something and set the cap gills down on a piece of paper or tin foil and wait 24 hours. *poof* you have a spore print.

I concur with the Conocybe ID.
It's hollow and thin. The first part "Characteristics of the stem - 1-2", 1-2mm diameter, hollow, thin, off -white color", describes the characteristics of this mushroom. The latter part "(length, diameter, color, texture, hollow/solid, thin/thick, etc)", describes the criteria being applied to describe the mushroom. So, it's hollow and it is thin.  Just what you'd expect of a Conocybe..
