The ricin went missing the same day Brock became ill despite Jesse being diligent in keeping it safe and with him. Brock's poisoning led to Jesse nearly killing Walter and Jesse killing Gus because Walt convinced him it was Gus who was trying to frame Walt. Then Jesse finds out Brock was poisoned 'accidentally' by Lilly of the Valley. That's a pretty big coincidence. Either Jesse brought down a drug kinglord who Jesse didn't particularly hate because some kid ate something he shouldn't have or there was some manipulation going on. It would have weighed on Jesse and he would have had time to think it through.
Jesse knows Heisenberg better than anyone, he knows how intelligent he is, how manipulative he is, and how ruthless he is. He knew he killed Mike. It's not a stretch to think he's been thinking back to that day often and couldn't piece everything together. How did the ricin disappear? How did it end up in roomba after he checked it? How did Brock get poisoned? These aren't questions someone just sweeps under the rug and forgets about. Yeah, maybe 10 seconds was quick but I think he had the pieces together and just needed Huell stealing his weed to give him the final clue.
