Identification please?

Habitat: Ok I have here 2 mushrooms, One is just an edible that is really nice and I want that ided it grows under a big tree that throws off lots of pine needles, the more i water the more come up 
Now, this other mushroom i have found is a very interesting one that sprouts in my hothouse, this mushroom will only sprout if i soak the hot house with water, and then lots of them sprout. they grow near the back where there is lots of old horse poo and bird seed, there is also a piece of wood under near there, but they dont seem to be sprouting from the wood.
Gills: The edible one has lots of black and purple spores,
while the other mushroom has dark black spores, but they dont seem to go all the way to the edge when theyre open and very translucent looking gills, it drops a ton of spores really fast after being picked.
Stem: The edible one has a really thick hard white stem.
the other mushroom has a frail weak stem, seems to be very watery.
Cap: Very large and thick caps on the edible ones, go brown when ready to be picked, a very thick and easy skin to peel.
the one Mushroom has a very weird texture on the cap and seems to have a dot on the top of each mushroom the dot seems to be harder them the rest, again very watery.
Spore print color: The edible has a dark purply coloured print.
the other mushroom has a dark black print.
Bruising: The edible mushroom doesnt seem to bruise any colour.
the other mushroom, im not sure to call it bruising but it does change colour where it is touched and has liquid when squeezed.
Other information: The edible mushrooms smell isnt very strong an average mushroom smell when cooked.
The other mushroom seems to have a fungusy smell, same as cooked mushroom when squeezed. very weak mushroom. there is also lots of birdseed around them i do have pictures.




this one actually im sure is a different one.

first of all, why do you keep referring to mushroom #1 as an 'edible' when you haven't even IDed it?
Second of all, this post is extremely convoluted. Keep ID requests separate, pictures would help immensely.

yeah, that is not terribly coherent, and there certainly aren't enough details to identify either of your mushrooms. with a very few exceptions; you should not eat any mushroom unless you know exactly what species it belongs to.

Attn PWN hunters: If you should come across a bluing Psilocybe matching P. pellicolusa please smell it. If you detect a scent reminiscent of Anethole (anise) please preserve a specimen or two for study and please PM me.

The first one may be a species of Agaricus, which I'm guessing is why you refer to it as "edible"? Because it looks like white button or portabello mushrooms you buy in the store? Well it is related, but not all Agaricus species are edible. The smell and bruising colour of this mushroom are important features for telling apart the edible species from the poisonous ones. Also, always get a photo of the base of the stem, and very importantly, the underside of the cap!
The smaller ones are Parasola, maybe P. leiocephala or P. auricoma, but I don't really want to open photos from image shack, so it's hard to say for sure.
Anyway, don't eat any mushroom which you are not positive of the identity.
