Don't pick the pinheads (the small ones). As mushrooms age, the cap expands, flattens out and the spores are released. This is a good thing since the spores will grow into new mushrooms in future years. Try to pick caps that have already expanded and leave the little ones to mature!
Don't dig up or damage the "roots" of the mushroom. Simply pinch the stalk of the mushroom a bit beneath the cap so that don't disturb the underground vegetative material which will produce more mushrooms.
