It looks like some form of caterpillar.

Have you seen any moths around your grow?

Could you get a full shot from head to tip?

I'm thinking possibly some form of cutworm.

Do a search for garden pests. That will be a big help to you.

They are Meal Worms! For sure they get used in composting, the are great at breaking down waste and leaving behind nutrient rich soil in place, soil company must have let some past,...... Lol I once poured a full magic mushroom out of my Advance Nutes Turantula 1L Seriously, WTF? Lol
