Rings & brown gills.

Spore print pure dark brown. No other shades.

Stems are cream.

Smell of fresh button mushrooms.

I'm 2 yrs into growing and gathering so not to knowledgeable

Many thanks for the help. I'd like to know if these are edible and it's possible the culture the spores. I'm very sorry if this is tmi or I missed something.

This looks similar to the western flat-topped Agaricus, Agaricus meleagris.  However this mushroom is supposed to have an unpleasant odor.  Maybe Agaricus augustis Fr., “prince”, but it is suppose to have an almond-anise smell.
