@Waira or anyone who knows what bug this could be. I think I know, but I don't want to influence your opinion.

Found on top of first no-till living soil medium---and not on any of the plant.

thanks guys-----I thought it might be root aphids---but consensus here is mites---if it's mites I've been reading that often they come with/in beneficial worms...so i guess that's how they got in.

Mites for sure mate! If they are only in/on the soil, they're the harmless type, not sap suckers,.... if they are in plague numbers, a nuisance, then any mite killer will work, used as a surface spray,... check you soil bag for existing populations,.... if infested, ditch it and get freshie's!
