    I would agree with Chlorophullum rhacodes or perhaps even Macrolepiota procera.

    There is a look -alike species that is very poisonous called Chlorophyllum molybdites. I am a fair distance north of you, and the molybdites are not found in my area, but I could not securely vouch for yours.

    A white spore print would be rhacodes and a greenish one molybdites, but it looks like you have picked them all so soon that they had not begun sporulating.

    Rhacodes are tasty. Get a sporeprint where you got those to be sure.
