While it may or may not be reasonable suspicion, when you are working a house to develop PC for a meth lab, you make stops on cars coming and going. These stops are done when you develop independent PC for the stop. Some items you may find that are legal, but good indicators of a person cooking meth would be massive amounts of certain cold meds/or empty boxes, acetone, grinders, scales, empty baggies, jars, ect. For the cars leaving you will find people carrying dope, glass pipes, make lots of arrests for warrants and many times recover a stolen car.
Except for the cold meds, that sounds like a lot of stuff I used to buy back when I was building an airplane in the garage, boxes of various sizes and kinds to store parts, lots of baggies and jars for small washers, screws, doohickies of various kinds, gallons of acetone, various scales to weigh parts, tools of all sorts, etc.

Someone could have made a real fool of themselves trying to make PC out of that.
I think you missed the part where these things are not used in and of themselves? You guys are missing the point...
Which is probably why you are a good LEO, and most of us would not make good LEOs. ;-)

Or buying large amounts of fertilizer, and not owning a farm,....

I hope to cut that need in half for farmers, so that buying large amounts would be even more noticeable. As with our firearms, it is the mind of man and his actions which make the item's use good or bad.

How was the homeowner stupid? Growing a hydroponic garden? Tell me now because I intend to do that when I get to Texas.

Putting the vegetation grown in said garden, not being pot or anything else illegal, in the trash, not realizing that some deputy had seen his driver's license in a gardening store and would therefore be searching his trash hoping to hit pay dirt?

As silly as it may seem to some, there are dare I say, hundreds, maybe even thousands, of people out there who have never seen pot, never smelled it, and have no more idea of what pot looks or smells like than whale poop. They ought to be able to go about their ordinary lawful business without interference from these crack... uhhh, pots who see a pot farmer under every bed.
I've researched hydroponics, aquaponics, heavy metal sludge, nitrogen sources, potassium, phosphorus, micro-nutrients, and plant growth mediums, all the while developing a new technology for improving plant roots ability to draw nutrients from various types of soil while reducing requirements for fertilizer. I've used it on my citrus trees, my flowers, roses, hibiscus. I did all of this to learn how to stop killing my citrus trees since I was a terrible gardener and needed help, but if you had a different mindset, you could look at my internet search history and think it was for other purposes. When they start confusing my Whole Foods tea leaves for something else, I guess at that point I will have another opinion.

Respectfully may I say that we don't blanket bash LEOs on this forum, though in this case, I believe a few may have been over-eager.
