Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) in Texas: The Complete Guide by OilWell Cannabis of Houston
Here in Texas, where frontier spirit meets modern medical innovation, we’ve watched countless neighbors struggle to find honest answers about cannabis oil. Maybe you’re a Gulf Coast veteran dealing with PTSD that the VA medications can’t touch. Maybe you’re a parent in The Woodlands researching options for a child’s treatment-resistant epilepsy. Or you’re a cancer patient at MD Anderson, hearing whispers about RSO in the waiting room while you wait for your next round of chemo. Wherever you are in Texas—from the Piney Woods to the Permian Basin, from the Valley to the Panhandle—you deserve real information, not internet myths.
This guide is our promise to you: everything we know about Rick Simpson Oil, grounded in the actual science, shaped by our own Texas roots, and delivered with the straight-talking honesty you’d expect from a Houston company. We’re OilWell Cannabis, founded right here in Montrose, and we’ve spent years building what we believe is the most sophisticated, legally compliant, and transparently documented RSO formula available anywhere. We’re not here to sell you snake oil or false hope—we’re here to give you the best possible version of the facts so you can decide what’s right for you and your loved ones.
Who Was Rick Simpson, and Why Does His Story Still Matter in Texas?
Rick Simpson wasn’t a doctor. He was a power engineer from Nova Scotia—a blue-collar tradesman, the kind of hardworking person you’d meet at a jobsite outside Midland or a refinery in Port Arthur. In 1997, a workplace injury left him with persistent tinnitus and post-concussion symptoms that Texas doctors know all too well. The medications didn’t work, and when he asked his physician about cannabis, he got shut down. Sound familiar? That same conversation is happening in clinics across Dallas, Austin, and San Antonio every day.
Simpson’s desperation led him to a 1974 NIH-funded study from the Medical College of Virginia showing THC could slow tumor growth in mice. That study—never replicated in humans—became his guiding light. Then came 2003: three bumps on his arm diagnosed as basal cell carcinoma. Simpson applied homemade cannabis oil, covered them with bandages, and claimed they disappeared in four days. No biopsy, no medical confirmation, no published follow-up—just his personal testimony. Yet that story launched a global movement.
Important context for Texas readers: Simpson’s account is personal testimony, not medical evidence. We honor his story because it sparked something real, but we also know that personal testimony alone isn’t enough when you’re making decisions about cancer treatment. Here at OilWell, we believe in telling you exactly what the science says—and what it doesn’t.
The 60-Gram Protocol: What Simpson Recommended vs. What Texas Patients Actually Need
Simpson’s famous 90-day protocol called for consuming 60 grams of his crude oil—roughly 600-900mg of THC per day at peak dosing. That’s 30 to 45 times higher than FDA-approved synthetic THC dosing. He suggested starting with a half-grain of rice-sized dose and escalating quickly, claiming tolerance would develop in 3-4 weeks.
Here’s what we need to tell our Texas family about this protocol:
- No controlled trials have ever validated this approach
- Crude, unstandardized material means every batch was different
- Very high THC exposure carries real risks: severe intoxication, anxiety, tachycardia, and cannabis use disorder
- Oncology patients are medically complex—using unregulated oil as a primary treatment instead of proven therapies can cause genuine harm
We appreciate what Simpson got right: he drew attention to cannabinoids when the world ignored them, and he helped create the conditions for the legal industry we have today. But we also see what he overstated: cure claims that exceed the evidence, and encouragement to use RSO instead of proven cancer treatments. For our Texas customers, the bottom line is this: RSO education complements medical care; it does not replace it. If you’re at MD Anderson, Memorial Hermann, or any Texas oncology center, please discuss any cannabinoid use with your treatment team.
From McAllen to Montrose: How OilWell Cannabis Was Born in Texas
OilWell Cannabis didn’t start in a boardroom. It started in McAllen, Texas—right across the river from Reynosa, in the heart of the Borderplex. Colin Valencia, our founder, grew up in one of the most economically challenged and dangerous regions along the U.S.-Mexico border. He learned early what it means to hustle, to survive, and to see friends lost to violence or prison. By sixteen, he had to leave home for good.
Despite those dangers, Colin chose cannabis over darker paths. He learned the plant intimately in the traditional pre-legalization world, then transitioned to legitimate business as Texas law evolved. Later, he became a formally trained software engineer, doing custom development work for Baylor College of Medicine in the Texas Medical Center. That combination—deep cannabis knowledge plus medical-grade technical precision—defines OilWell’s DNA.
Bentley: The Dog Who Changed Everything
Our company’s origin story begins with a dog named Bentley. Bentley wasn’t just a pet; he was family. When veterinary medicine failed him—paralyzed back legs, facing euthanasia, pain meds that would destroy his organs—Colin refused to give up. A rescue worker named Jessica asked the question that changed everything: “You’ve moved how many tons of weed and you’ve never heard of CBD?”
That question exposed a blind spot and opened a mission.
Colin created a CBD golden paste formula for Bentley:
- 1/2 cup organic turmeric powder
- 1 cup water
- 1/3 cup coconut oil
- 1-2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- CBD oil (dosed for Bentley’s weight)
The result? Bentley got up, walked over, and brought his ball to play. From paralyzed and facing euthanasia to fetching his ball. Dogs don’t respond to placebo. This was real.
Bentley lived another ten years, passing naturally at age twenty. During those years, Colin developed specialized formulas for every age-related condition:
- Neurodegeneration → CBG’s neuroprotective properties, THCa’s PPARγ agonism
- Dementia → CBC’s role in neurogenesis
- Glaucoma → THC’s CB1 agonism for intraocular pressure
- Arthritis → Multi-pathway anti-inflammatory approach using CBD, CBG, THCa, and beta-caryophyllene
Single cannabinoids weren’t enough. Bentley’s evolving conditions required multi-cannabinoid synergy with pharmaceutical precision. That decade of real-world formulation testing on a patient Colin loved more than anything—that’s the foundation of our RSO formula.
Colin’s Personal Battle: PTSD, Benzos, and the Birth of Peace Gummies
Colin also knows pharmaceutical dependence personally. He struggled with severe PTSD and Xanax addiction. When he decided to quit cold turkey—a feat notoriously difficult and dangerous—he used the cannabinoid knowledge he’d developed saving Bentley.
Our Peace Gummies were born during midnight experiments while fighting through benzo withdrawal. Colin personally uses the vape form for insomnia and severe PTSD. This isn’t theoretical knowledge. He lived what RSO patients live: desperation for relief, failed pharmaceuticals, the discovery that cannabinoids work when pills do not.
The OilWell RSO Philosophy: Four Principles for Texas
Our RSO is not traditional Rick Simpson Oil. It’s informed by his tradition but deliberately different in ways that solve the problems his original vision couldn’t address—especially here in Texas, where legal access and medical guidance are limited.
1. Accessibility Over Gatekeeping
In Texas, getting medical cannabis through the TCUP program requires:
- A qualifying condition (cancer, PTSD, epilepsy, autism, terminal illness, ALS, MS, seizure disorders, incurable neurodegenerative diseases)
- A doctor’s prescription
- Registration with the state
- Travel to a physical dispensary
We believe that’s too many barriers. Our RSO is available to anyone 21+ with no medical card required. We ship nationwide from Houston and internationally to customers who verify local legality. For Texans in rural counties without dispensaries, for veterans who don’t want to navigate bureaucracy, for cancer patients too sick to travel—this matters.
Simpson believed medicine should be accessible to everyone. We built a product and distribution model that makes that accessible legally.
2. Patient-Controlled Potency
Traditional RSO was always fully psychoactive. Simpson’s oil delivered 600-900mg of THC per day—enough to leave most people unable to work, drive, or parent.
Our approach: THCa is the key. Our sublingual formula contains 1,500mg of THCa in its acidic, non-psychoactive form. You have three choices:
Option 1: Raw (no heat)
All 1,500mg stays as THCa—completely non-psychoactive. Use it during the day while working, driving, or caring for family. THCa offers potential anti-inflammatory activity via COX-2 inhibition and neuroprotective potential via PPARγ agonism [12].
Option 2: Fully activated (home decarboxylation)
Heat the oil at 260°F for 45-60 minutes. 1,500mg THCa converts to ~1,315mg delta-9 THC. Combined with the existing 90mg delta-9 THC, you get ~1,405mg total—potency comparable to traditional illegal RSO, but 100% legally activated at your discretion.
Option 3: Vape (auto-decarboxylation)
Our RSO Vape Cartridge vaporizes at 400-450°F, instantly converting THCa to delta-9 THC with each puff. Fastest relief available.
You control the decision. This aligns with Rick Simpson’s principle that patients should control their medicine, but we implement it through actual product chemistry rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.
3. Open-Source Formulas
Rick Simpson gave his oil away for free and taught people how to make it. He never patented his method. That ethos stuck with us.
We publish our complete formulas publicly—every cannabinoid, every milligram amount, every percentage. If you can’t afford our products ($129.99 for sublingual oil, $49.99 for vape cartridge), you can source individual cannabinoid distillates and make your own version.
As Colin said on ABC13 in 2019: “I’m not trying to sell people snake oil… there’s enough research out there that people just need to know and try and have the best possible version to base their opinions off of to give it a fair shot.”
This isn’t new for us. We published the CBD golden paste recipe that saved Bentley before we ever published the RSO formula. The open-source ethos is foundational behavior, not marketing strategy.
4. Evidence-Informed, Not Evidence-Overstating
Simpson operated without access to peer-reviewed literature. We have that access, and we use it to distinguish between:
- Well-supported (CBD for seizures, THC for chemo nausea)
- Emerging (CBG for neuroprotection, THCa for inflammation)
- Overstated (CBN as proven sleep aid, myrcene as proven sedative)
Every cannabinoid in our formula has its own evidence profile in our General Knowledge section, with 29 peer-reviewed citations [1]-[29]. We hold ourselves to the same standards we apply to the broader field.
Understanding the Legal Framework: Why Our RSO Is Texas-Compliant
The 2018 Farm Bill legalized hemp-derived products containing less than 0.3% delta-9 THC by dry weight. This federal framework is the foundation of our legal operation.
Our RSO Sublingual Oil contains only 90mg of delta-9 THC in the entire 30mL bottle—3mg per mL—well under the 0.3% threshold. All cannabinoids are hemp-derived. The product is legal under federal law and in most states.
The THCa Distinction: Why It Matters for Texas Customers
THCa is not delta-9 THC. It’s the acidic, non-psychoactive precursor. Our product contains 1,500mg of THCa because:
- At point of sale, it’s Farm Bill compliant (less than 0.3% delta-9 THC)
- You control activation—decarboxylate at home or leave it raw
- Texas law enforcement tests for delta-9 THC, not THCa
Important: THCa converts to delta-9 THC when heated at 260°F for 45-60 minutes. The conversion ratio is approximately 1mg THCa = 0.877mg delta-9 THC. If you choose to activate it, you’re responsible for understanding your local laws. We ship with full documentation, Certificates of Analysis, and receipts, but international customers accept all customs and legal risk.

The Science Behind Our Formula: What Texas Patients Need to Know
Every compound in our RSO is there for a reason, backed by research. Here’s how it applies to Texas health concerns:
CBD (4,500mg) — The Foundation
Strongest evidence for: Rare epilepsies, chemotherapy nausea, HIV/AIDS appetite [1][2]
Relevant to Texans: Anxiety disorders (2024 meta-analysis shows significant anxiolytic signal) [3], chronic pain management [4]
Real talk: The strongest human evidence is in seizure disorders, but many Texans report benefits for pain and anxiety. Our formula provides therapeutic doses, not wellness fluff.
CBG (3,000mg) — The Neuroprotector
Evidence: Mostly preclinical, but promising for neurologic disorders and inflammatory bowel disease [7][8]
Relevant to Texans: Veterans with traumatic brain injury, MS patients, IBS sufferers
Real talk: CBG is commercially interesting because it’s underexplored. We include it for Bentley’s neurodegeneration reasons, not because it’s proven in humans yet.
Delta-8 THC (6,000mg) — The Middle Path
Evidence: Pharmacologically similar to delta-9 but less potent, with similar safety concerns [9][10][11]
Relevant to Texans: Pain relief without the intense delta-9 “edge,” anti-nausea effects
Real talk: Delta-8 is psychoactive and habit-forming. It will cause you to fail a drug test. But for Texans who want therapeutic effects without delta-9’s intensity, it provides a middle ground.
THCa (1,500mg) — The Game-Changer
Evidence: Anti-inflammatory via COX-2 inhibition, neuroprotective via PPARγ, non-psychoactive until heated [12]
Relevant to Texans: Daytime use for chronic pain, inflammation, or neuroprotection without impairment
Real talk: This is our most important innovation for Texas workers, parents, and drivers. You can take our RSO raw and function completely normally. Then decarb what you need for nighttime relief.
Delta-9 THC (90mg) — The Legal Limit
Evidence: Strongest for chemo nausea, HIV appetite, some pain [1][13]
Relevant to Texans: We keep it at 90mg total to stay Farm Bill compliant
Real talk: Our product is legal because we meticulously control delta-9 content. But you can convert the THCa yourself for full potency. That’s the legal framework that makes this possible in Texas.
CBN (750mg) — The Sleep Support
Evidence: Weak human evidence; marketing ahead of data [16][17]
Relevant to Texans: Insomnia, sleep architecture support
Real talk: At 1-2mL dose, you get 25-50mg CBN—the range studied in sleep literature. We include it because the preclinical signal is plausible, but we’re honest: the evidence is weaker than for CBD or THC.
CBC (750mg) — The Minor Cannabinoid
Evidence: Emerging preclinical data on pain, neurogenesis, inflammation [18][19]
Relevant to Texans: Part of our multi-pathway approach to complex conditions
Real talk: CBC is in our “promising but not proven” category. We include it for the entourage potential and because Bentley’s dementia journey suggested it mattered.
Terpenes: The 5% Live Blend
Our seven-terpene profile (limonene, myrcene, caryophyllene, pinene, linalool, humulene, terpinolene) is preserved at 5% because:
- Caryophyllene is a CB2 agonist—directly activating your cannabinoid system [24]
- Limonene and linalool offer potential anxiolytic effects [20][21][26]
- Myrcene and pinene may contribute to relaxation and clarity [20][23][25]
- Humulene and terpinolene add anti-inflammatory complexity [27][28]
Real talk for Texans: Terpenes make the product smell and taste better (citrus, pepper, forest, lavender notes), and the science is plausible but not proven. We don’t oversell them.
ABC13 Houston: Our Media Record Speaks for Itself
Between September 2019 and April 2023, ABC13 KTRK—Houston’s number-one news source—featured Colin and OilWell in seven comprehensive segments spanning:
- Texas CBD business boom
- National decriminalization efforts
- Delta-8 THC investigation
- COVID-19 vaccine community initiative
- Delta-8 ban impact
- Biden marijuana pardon analysis
- 4/20 Texas industry special
Five different reporters sought us out: Tom Abrahams, Steve Campion, Shelley Childers, KTRK staff, and Nick Natario. No other Houston cannabis operator matches this frequency or breadth.
Key Moments from Our ABC13 Coverage
September 2019: The Philosophy Revealed
“I’m not trying to sell people snake oil. I’m not trying to sell people hope, but there’s enough research out there that people just need to know and try and have the best possible version to base their opinions off of to give it a fair shot.”
—Colin Valencia, establishing the educational mission that drives this document
May 2021: Radical Honesty on Delta-8
When Steve Campion asked why someone would want Delta-8, Colin answered bluntly: “Maybe you want to get high.” ABC13 aired the uncensored exchange, demonstrating our commitment to truth over marketing spin.
August 2021: Community Health Leadership
We gave away 1,000 caviar pre-rolls—approximately $35,000 in product—to encourage COVID vaccination in Houston. We coordinated with the city and hosted the giveaway at our retail partner HydroShack in The Heights. No political strings, just community care.
October 2021: Ethical Leadership During Crisis
When Texas DSHS classified Delta-8 as Schedule I overnight, we proactively removed all products before enforcement and warned other operators who were unknowingly shipping narcotics. We absorbed the revenue loss to act ethically.
October 2022: Personal Revelation
ABC13 revealed that Colin has a personal marijuana conviction history. This transforms our entire story—every quote about therapy, education, and integrity carries more weight when you know we’ve lived the consequences. We didn’t build this business from privilege; we built it from experience.
April 2023: Renaissance Framing
Colin told Nick Natario: “Right now is actually a pretty—like Renaissance—pretty important time that should be enjoyed now.” We’re not waiting for Texas legalization; we’re building the future today.
The Through-Line: Recognition That Can’t Be Bought
These features weren’t paid placements. They’re independently produced, editorially controlled news segments from a major-market ABC affiliate that repeatedly identified Colin as Houston’s most credible cannabis voice. For Texans trying to evaluate who to trust, this media record—spanning four years, five reporters, and countless legal and medical topics—is verification you can’t fake.

Texas Competitive Context: How We Compare
We don’t mention competitors by name, but Texas customers deserve context on what’s available locally.
vs. Texas TCUP Dispensary RSO
Their model: THC-only (~420mg per 0.5g syringe), requires medical card, limited qualifying conditions, must travel to dispensary
Our model: 7 cannabinoids, no card needed, age 21+, ships to your Texas doorstep, patient-controlled potency
Bottom line: If you don’t qualify for TCUP or can’t get to a dispensary, we provide legal access.
vs. Hemp-Only CBD RSO
Their model: ~1,000mg total cannabinoids, mostly CBD, no psychoactive option
Our model: 16,590mg total, includes delta-8 THC, preserved THCa for activation, true RSO potency potential
Bottom line: If CBD alone isn’t enough for your Texas-sized pain or cancer support needs, we offer a multi-cannabinoid approach.
vs. Traditional Illegal RSO
Their model: Crude, variable, untested, naphtha-extracted, no terpenes, unknown potency
Our model: Lab-tested, solvent-free, standardized, terpene-enhanced, precisely dosed, Farm Bill compliant
Bottom line: We respect Simpson’s vision but solved the safety and consistency problems that limited his approach.
Texas Culture, Texas Values, Texas Cannabis
We’re a Houston company, but our roots run deep across Texas:
Border values: Colin’s McAllen upbringing taught us that resilience and innovation come from hardship, not privilege. We understand what it means to operate in difficult environments.
Veteran focus: Our Asshole Peach product is favored by Texas veterans for PTSD and pain. Colin’s own PTSD journey informs every product we make.
Medical community respect: We deliver free to the Texas Medical Center because we respect the work happening there. We want to complement Texas oncology, not compete with it.
Rural access: Same-day delivery to Houston, but we ship to Amarillo, Lubbock, El Paso, Lufkin, and every small town in between. Texas is huge, and everyone deserves access.
Honest education: We won’t tell you cannabis cures cancer. We will tell you what the research says, what it doesn’t, and let you make an informed decision—just like a Texas neighbor would.
