Welshpool Police reported the unsavoury attempt after a drugs sting over the weekend.
In an effort to hide the evidence the dealer had tried to get rid of the cannabis down the toilet.
Tweeting after the bust Welshpool Police said: "Notice to any would be drug dealers. If Police knock at the door cannabis doesn’t flush easily."
An image tweeted with the comments showed a toilet bowl full of cannabis.
The officers also tweeted that it was "not pleasant" recovering the evidence.
