BROWNING, MISSOURI -- A Sullivan county man is in jail after authorities find 150 marijuana plants in his house. 

Ronald Rardon, 50, of Browning Missouri, is charged with attempt to produce a controlled substance and possession of chemicals used to manufacture methamphetamine. 

The Sullivan County Sheriff's Office tells KTVO, they conducted a knock and talk at Rardon's residence Thursday night. When they were denied permission to search the home, they went back Friday morning armed with a search warrant. When they entered the home they found 150 marijuana plants growing in pots.
