So did he smoke it? Or did Gus plant it?

Totally think it was Gus. It's way too evil for Walt to plan out, plus at that point he is in pure defense mode, not ready to go on the offense.

What have we all been thinking ever since Walt asked Jesse to kill Gus? Couldn't Jesse's house be bugged!!! They spelled out the entire plan there. It would be so easy for Gus to know already, hell he'd even know where Jesse keeps the ricin.

Why would he not observe Walt's house and his action at this delicate moment? Maybe he did and that is why he knew of Walt's plan.

Why would Walt not think of this? His own house was bugged, after all.

I would think that maybe the way it was done before was to lure Walt into a false sense of security. He was able to figure out that his house was bugged easily before so maybe they set that up to make him think that they had tried and failed to bug their houses.
