According to law enforcement, officials pulled up to Heidi's home in Pahrump on August 7 looking for another woman ... when they stumbled upon a gigantic weed farm.
Eventually, officers made contact with Heidi ... who admitted to owning the plants and said she was growing the weed for a "cooperative in Las Vegas."
Problem is ... Heidi doesn't have a license to grow.
Cops say ... in total, they found 392 suspected marijuana plants -- which were all collected as evidence.
Fleiss was charged with several crimes -- including possession of marijuana with intent to sell, possession of drug paraphernalia and maintaining a home where drugs are sold/used.
However, cops say Fleiss was NOT arrested ... "due to the fact that she has approximately $200,000 worth of exotic birds in the residence plus she gave us consent to search without a warrant and was very cooperative throughout the investigation."
