If they bruise bluish green they are active, your going to need a large dose though and its better to eat them fresh.

They look similar to Gyms in their color and they grow in a clump. What's bugging me is the date stamp on the picture.
How old are these mushrooms?

Look at all the info you have posted. Spore color is correct for gyms, they bruise bluish/green, substrate is correct, and growth characteristics are there so yes i would say they are gyms. Use the dosage calculator on here to figure out a dose, the species you have is not on there but another species in the same genus is on there and from what ive read the species you have and the one on the dosage calculator or similar in potency. Let us know how it goes

How much did they weigh?
2 or 3 should be enough for at least a level 1.

If they are active, they are active whenever they are growing. If they aren't active, they will not be active whenever they are growing. Active Gyms can be found in summer and fall unless you are down South. Then you can find them in spring too.
