Took some time to look at gwe bug page. They are fungus gnats. Should had looked first. Lazy I guess.

I found these as the sun came up. Never seen them before. There are lots of them. I think they might be fungus gnat larvae. We have had over 12 inches rain this month and that is what we get in a year lately. Please help to indentify. Outdoor grow soil.
