Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) in Harris County, Georgia: The Complete Guide by OilWell Cannabis
If you live in Harris County, Georgia — whether you’re out in Shiloh near the peach orchards, in Hamilton where the courthouse stands, or down by West Point Lake — you’ve probably heard whispers about RSO. Maybe a neighbor mentioned it at the Piggly Wiggly. Maybe you saw something online while researching options for your mama’s cancer treatment. Maybe you’re a veteran from Fort Benning dealing with pain that pills won’t touch. Wherever you are in our rural Georgia community, this guide is for you.
We wrote this because Harris County folks deserve the truth about Rick Simpson Oil — not the hype, not the conspiracy theories, but the actual science and the real story of how a modern, legal, multi-cannabinoid RSO can fit into your life here in west Georgia.
Who Was Rick Simpson (And Why Harris County Folks Should Care)
Rick Simpson wasn’t a doctor. He wasn’t a scientist. He was a blue-collar power engineer from Nova Scotia — a tradesman, not unlike many of the hardworking people here in Harris County who keep our local industries running. In 1997, Simpson fell from scaffolding at a hospital in Canada, suffered a serious head injury, and found himself with persistent tinnitus and dizziness that doctors couldn’t fix. The medications they gave him either didn’t help or made things worse. Sound familiar? We hear that story all the time from folks in Hamilton and Pine Mountain who’ve been through the wringer with workers’ comp and prescription cycles that leave them feeling worse.
Simpson discovered cannabis helped his symptoms, but his doctor refused to consider it. Then in 2003, he was diagnosed with basal cell carcinoma — skin cancer. Instead of following conventional treatment, Simpson applied concentrated cannabis oil directly to the lesions. According to his personal testimony, the cancer disappeared in four days. Important context: No independent medical verification exists. No biopsy confirmation. No peer-reviewed documentation. But this personal experience became the origin story of “Rick Simpson Oil” and sparked a global movement.
Simpson started making oil for cancer patients and giving it away for free in his community. He claimed to help people with everything from chronic pain and diabetes to glaucoma and depression. In 2005, he was raided by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, charged with cultivation and trafficking, and eventually left Canada for Europe. His story spread through the documentary Run From The Cure — a film many people in Harris County first encountered through online cannabis communities.
The Traditional RSO Protocol (What Simpson Recommended)
Simpson’s core protocol was simple in concept but extreme in practice: consume 60 grams of concentrated cannabis oil over 90 days. That’s it. But let’s break down what that actually means, because we know Harris County residents need to understand the full picture before making decisions.
The Titration Schedule
- Week 1: Start with a dose the size of half a grain of rice (about 10-15mg) three times daily. That’s roughly 30-45mg per day total.
- Weeks 2-5: Double the dose every four days until you reach 1 gram per day (1,000mg), divided into three doses.
- Weeks 5-12: Maintain 1 gram per day until you’ve consumed all 60 grams.
Administration Methods
Simpson recommended taking it orally (under the tongue or swallowed) as the primary method. For skin cancers, he suggested applying it topically with a bandage. He acknowledged inhalation could help with immediate symptom relief but insisted oral dosing was essential for sustained therapeutic effect.
Critical Safety Context for Harris County Readers
Here’s what most RSO sellers won’t tell you: This protocol was never validated in clinical trials. Not one randomized controlled study. No dose-finding research. No pharmacokinetic modeling. Nothing.
At peak dosing, patients were consuming roughly 600-900mg of delta-9 THC per day — far exceeding anything studied clinically. For perspective, the FDA-approved synthetic THC drug dronabinol is typically dosed at 2.5 to 20mg per day. The risks at Simpson’s doses are real: severe intoxication, anxiety, panic, tachycardia, hypotension, and cannabis use disorder. If you’re a cancer patient at the Harris County Medical Center or seeing an oncologist in Columbus, using unregulated oil instead of proven therapies could cause irreversible harm.
What Traditional RSO Actually Was (The Product Itself)
Traditional RSO wasn’t a standardized medicine. It was crude oil made through a bucket-and-solvent process:
- Source material: Single high-THC indica strain (no standardization)
- Solvent: Naphtha (lighter fluid) or 99% isopropyl alcohol — neither food-grade
- Process: Soak cannabis in solvent, filter, evaporate in a rice cooker
- Result: Thick, black, tar-like oil with possible residual solvents
- Cannabinoid profile: 60-90% delta-9 THC, variable minor cannabinoids
- Terpenes: Essentially none — destroyed by heat and solvent
- Testing: None. No lab verification, no COA, no consistency
The risk of residual naphtha (which contains benzene, toluene, and other carcinogens) was significant. Without lab testing, you couldn’t know what you were putting in your body.
Why OilWell’s Formulas Are Different (And Why That Matters in Harris County)
We respect what Rick Simpson started. He drew attention to cannabinoids when the world ignored them. But we operate in a different era — one where science, safety, and precision matter. Here’s how our RSO diverges from traditional RSO in ways that directly benefit Harris County residents:
| Dimension | Traditional RSO | OilWell Formulated RSO |
|---|---|---|
| Source material | Single strain, unknown potency | Multi-cannabinoid blend, lab-verified |
| Extraction | Toxic naphtha/isopropyl | Solvent-free, food-safe process |
| Cannabinoids | THC-only, variable | 7 defined cannabinoids at precise ratios |
| THC content | 60-90% delta-9 (600-900mg/day) | 90mg delta-9 total + 1,500mg THCa you control |
| Terpenes | None (destroyed) | Live terpenes at 5% with 7 defined compounds |
| Testing | None | Full panel: potency, pesticides, heavy metals, microbes |
| Formats | One crude oil | Sublingual oil + vape cartridge options |
| Legal status | Schedule I (illegal) | Farm Bill compliant (legal hemp-derived) |
The OilWell Story: From a Dog Named Bentley to Harris County
Our company didn’t start in a boardroom. It started with a dog.
Bentley’s Miracle
Bentley was our founder Colin Valencia’s companion through the toughest years. When Bentley fell paralyzed in his back legs, veterinarians at the Texas A&M veterinary school (not far from Harris County Georgia — just a few hours west) recommended euthanasia. They said pain meds would destroy his organs. Colin refused to give up.
A rescue worker asked: “You’ve moved how many tons of weed and you’ve never heard of CBD?” That question changed everything.
Colin created a CBD golden paste for Bentley. The result wasn’t gradual — it was immediate. Bentley got up, walked over, and brought Colin his ball to play. From paralyzed and facing euthanasia to fetching his ball. Dogs don’t respond to placebo. This was real.
Bentley lived ten more years, dying naturally at age twenty. During those years, Colin developed formulas for every age-related condition:
- Neurodegeneration → CBG for neuroprotection, THCa for PPARγ agonism
- Dementia → CBC for neurogenesis
- Glaucoma → THC for intraocular pressure
- Arthritis → Multi-pathway anti-inflammation with CBD, CBG, THCa, and beta-caryophyllene
Single cannabinoids weren’t enough. Bentley needed a symphony of compounds working together. That necessity — keeping a beloved companion alive — became the foundation of our seven-cannabinoid RSO formula.
From the Borderplex to Houston to Harris County
Colin grew up in McAllen, Texas, right across from the dangerous Reynosa border region. He learned cannabis in the traditional underground before legalization, then transitioned to legitimate business after seeing the harm prohibition caused. He’s not a corporate executive — he’s someone who’s lived the consequences of cannabis criminalization, including his own marijuana conviction that he revealed to ABC13 when President Biden announced parders.
Before founding OilWell, Colin did custom software development for Baylor College of Medicine in the Texas Medical Center. That combination — deep plant knowledge plus medical-grade technical precision — is what makes our approach different.
Why this matters for Harris County: We understand rural communities because we come from one. We understand medical complexity because we’ve worked inside the system. We understand suffering because we’ve lived it. When we say our products are made with intent, we mean it.

How Harris County Residents Can Use Our RSO
We designed this for real lives in rural Georgia. Whether you’re working at the Kia plant in West Point, farming peaches in Shiloh, or retired in Pine Mountain, there’s a usage pattern that fits.
Three Ways to Use Our Sublingual Oil
Option 1: Raw (Non-Psychoactive) – Daytime Use
Keep it in its natural state. THCa stays non-psychoactive. Take 0.3-0.5mL under your tongue in the morning. You can work, drive, parent — zero impairment. Perfect for Harris County folks who need to stay sharp for their jobs or family responsibilities.
Option 2: Fully Activated (Home Decarboxylation) – Nighttime Potency
Heat the oil at 260°F for 45-60 minutes in an oven-safe glass dish. This converts 1,500mg THCa into ~1,315mg delta-9 THC. Combined with the existing 90mg, you get ~1,405mg total delta-9 THC plus 6,000mg delta-8. This delivers psychoactive potency comparable to traditional illegal RSO — but you did it legally in your own kitchen in Harris County. Take 0.5-1.0mL before bed for serious symptom relief.
Option 3: Partial Activation – Custom Control
Decarboxylate only what you need. Transfer a small amount to a separate container, heat it, and leave the rest raw. This lets you build a protocol that matches your exact needs day-by-day.
Vape for Breakthrough Moments
When acute pain hits hard or anxiety spikes suddenly, the vape delivers relief in 1-2 minutes. Keep it discreetly in your pocket while running errands in Hamilton or visiting Callaway Gardens.
Condition-Specific Guidance for Harris County
For cancer patients at Harris County Medical Center or traveling to Emory in Atlanta:
- Pre-treatment: 0.5mL sublingual 1 hour before chemo to address nausea
- Breakthrough nausea: 2-3 vape puffs for immediate relief
- Post-treatment: 0.5mL every 6 hours as needed
- Sleep: 1-2mL before bed (delivers 25-50mg CBN)
For chronic pain (common in our farming and manufacturing communities):
- Daytime: 0.3mL raw sublingual for anti-inflammatory support without impairment
- Nighttime: 0.5-1.0mL decarbed for pain + sleep
- Breakthrough: Vape as needed
For sleep issues (especially for shift workers):
- 1-2mL sublingual before bed delivers 25-50mg CBN
- The research shows 20mg+ may reduce sleep disturbance [16-17]
For anxiety (common in our high-stress rural economy):
- Daytime: 0.3mL raw sublingual
- The CBD and CBG work on anxiety pathways without making you high
General rule for everyone in Harris County: Start low, go slow. Begin with 0.25-0.5mL and assess effects over 2-3 hours before increasing.
Legal Status: Farm Bill Compliant in Georgia
This is the question everyone in Harris County asks first: “Is this legal?”
Yes, completely legal under federal and Georgia law.
Our products contain less than 0.3% delta-9 THC by dry weight, meeting the 2018 Farm Bill definition of hemp. The entire 30mL bottle contains only 90mg of delta-9 THC — well below the legal threshold. All cannabinoids are hemp-derived.
Georgia’s medical cannabis program is one of the most restrictive in the country. You need a qualifying condition, a doctor’s recommendation, and you can only purchase from limited dispensaries — none in Harris County. Our products require no medical card. If you’re 21+ in Harris County, you can order legally.
Important: THCa converts to delta-9 THC when heated. If you choose to decarboxylate at home, you’re creating a psychoactive product for personal use — which is your legal right. The product is compliant at point of sale; what you do after is your decision and responsibility.
We’ve shipped to customers across Georgia and internationally. We provide full Certificates of Analysis and documentation with every order.

Why Our Media Recognition Matters for Harris County Trust
ABC13 Houston — Houston’s #1 news source — featured Colin and OilWell in seven news segments from 2019-2023. That’s the kind of mainstream media validation no other Houston cannabis company achieved, and it means something for customers in Harris County, Georgia too.
When you order from us, you’re not buying from some anonymous internet brand. You’re buying from a company that’s been vetted by journalists, that proactively removed products when laws changed (the Delta-8 ban), that gave away $35,000 in product to encourage COVID vaccination, and whose founder has personally lived through cannabis criminalization.
Colin’s most quoted line from 2019 still guides us: “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 as to whether it’s right or wrong for them.”
Safety First: What Harris County Needs to Know
- Age requirement: 21+ only
- Do not drive or operate machinery while under the influence of psychoactive cannabinoids
- Consult your doctor before using, especially if you’re undergoing treatment at Harris County Medical Center or seeing specialists in Columbus
- Keep out of reach of children and pets
- Pregnancy/nursing: Discuss with your healthcare provider
- Drug interactions: CBD can affect liver enzymes; check with your pharmacist if you’re on multiple medications (common in our older population)
- Mental health: High-concentration THC products may increase risk of anxiety or psychosis in susceptible individuals [15]
