Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) in Camden County, Georgia: The Complete Guide by OilWell Cannabis
If you’re reading this from Camden County — maybe sitting in your kitchen in Kingsland, taking a break from work at the naval base, or caring for a loved one in St. Marys — you’re probably looking for answers that the usual channels haven’t given you. Maybe your doctor mentioned cannabis as a possibility but couldn’t tell you where to start. Maybe you’ve heard veterans at the Kings Bay Base talk about RSO for pain or sleep. Maybe you’re dealing with cancer, chronic pain that keeps you from enjoying Cumberland Island’s beaches, or PTSD that makes it hard to be present for your family. We wrote this guide for you.
We’re OilWell Cannabis, a Houston-based company with a simple mission: give people the best possible information and the best possible product, so you can decide for yourself if it’s right or wrong for you. Everything you’re about to read is documented, tested, and published for anyone to verify. We don’t sell snake oil. We don’t sell hope. We sell cannabinoid formulas that we developed through real suffering — our founder’s paralyzed dog Bentley, his own benzo withdrawal, his friends lost to border violence — and we publish every milligram of our formulas so you can make your own if you need to.
Who Is Rick Simpson, and Why Does His Story Matter Here in Camden County?
Rick Simpson was a power engineer from Nova Scotia, not a doctor. In 1997, he fell from a scaffolding at a hospital in Moncton and suffered a head injury that left him with tinnitus and dizziness. The medications his doctors prescribed either didn’t work or made things worse. When he asked his physician about cannabis, the doctor refused to consider it. Sound familiar? Many folks in Camden County have told us the same story — doctors who won’t discuss cannabis, prescriptions that create more problems than they solve, a healthcare system that feels like it’s failing you.
Simpson’s pivotal moment came in 2003, when he had three bumps on his arm diagnosed as basal cell carcinoma. He applied concentrated cannabis oil directly to the lesions, covered them with bandages, and claims they disappeared in four days. Important context: No independent medical verification exists. No biopsy confirmation. No clinical follow-up. But this personal testimony became the origin story of Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) and sparked a global movement.
After 2003, Simpson gave his oil away for free to cancer patients and others in his community. He claimed to help people with cancer, chronic pain, diabetes, infections, glaucoma, arthritis, depression, insomnia, and more. In 2005, the documentary Run From The Cure spread his story worldwide. He was raided by the RCMP in 2005 and 2009, charged with cultivation and trafficking, and eventually left Canada for Europe.
Simpson’s protocol was specific: 60 grams of high-THC oil over 90 days, starting with a dose half the size of a grain of rice and escalating to 1 gram per day. He recommended oral consumption (sublingual or swallowed), topical application for skin cancers, and acknowledged inhalation only for immediate symptom relief.
What Simpson got right: He drew attention to cannabinoids as serious medicine when the world was ignoring them. He helped create the conditions for the legal cannabis industry we have today. The term “RSO” remains the most recognized name for full-spectrum cannabis extract.
What he overstated: His “cure” claims exceeded the evidence then and still do today. No human clinical trial has proven RSO cures cancer. Encouraging patients to use RSO instead of proven cancer therapies carries genuine harm potential. We say this directly because you deserve honesty, not hype. Camden County has real cancer patients — at Southeast Georgia Health System, at Mayo Clinic Jacksonville, in home hospice across Woodbine — and they need truth, not false hope.
What Traditional RSO Actually Was
Traditional RSO was nearly black, thick as tar, made with naphtha or isopropyl alcohol — neither food-grade. Every batch was different. No lab testing. No terpenes (they were destroyed by heat). No standardization. Just crude, THC-dominant extract that Simpson gave away for free.
That was the best he could do in 2003. But we can do better now.
The OilWell RSO Philosophy: Building on Simpson’s Vision for Camden County
Our formulas are not traditional RSO. They are informed by Simpson’s mission — accessibility, patient control, open-source sharing — but built with modern precision you won’t find in any dispensary between Jacksonville and Savannah.
Why We Diverge from Traditional RSO
Multi-cannabinoid approach: Traditional RSO used one strain. We use seven cannabinoids at specific ratios because the entourage-effect literature suggests benefit from diversity, even if clinical proof remains limited.
Terpene preservation: Traditional RSO destroyed terpenes. We include live terpenes at 5% with a defined seven-terpene profile — limonene, myrcene, caryophyllene, pinene, linalool, humulene, terpinolene.
THCa as separate ingredient: Traditional RSO fully decarboxylated everything. We preserve THCa at 1,500 mg, giving you the choice to use it raw (non-psychoactive) or activate it at home.
Reduced delta-9 THC dominance: Traditional RSO was 60-90% delta-9 THC — 600-900 mg per day at Simpson’s peak dosing. Our sublingual formula contains only 90 mg delta-9 THC total in the entire bottle. Combined with 6,000 mg delta-8 THC, we achieve therapeutic effects with far less delta-9 exposure.
Product format innovation: Simpson had one crude oil. We offer both sublingual oil and vape cartridge, each with format-specific formulas.
The Decarboxylation Choice: Power in Your Hands
This is the breakthrough that makes our RSO uniquely suited for Camden County’s diverse needs. THCa is the non-psychoactive acidic precursor to THC. Our sublingual formula contains 1,500 mg of THCa. You control what happens next:
Option 1 — Raw, no heat: All 1,500 mg stays as THCa. Completely non-psychoactive. Perfect for daytime use at the naval base, driving through Kingsland, or any situation where impairment is not an option. The THCa evidence suggests anti-inflammatory activity via COX-2 inhibition and neuroprotective potential — exactly what military veterans dealing with PTSD or chronic pain need.
Option 2 — Fully activated: Heat the oil at 260°F for 45-60 minutes in an oven-safe glass container. This converts 1,500 mg THCa into approximately 1,315 mg delta-9 THC. Combined with the existing 90 mg, you get ~1,405 mg total delta-9 THC. That’s full-potency psychoactive RSO, legal because you activated it yourself after purchase.
Option 3 — Vape, auto-decarb: Our vape cartridge heats to 400-450°F, instantly converting THCa to delta-9 THC with each puff. Onset in 1-2 minutes for breakthrough pain, panic, or nausea.
This means one product serves three completely different needs. A senior in Woodbine dealing with arthritis can use it raw during the day. A cancer patient in St. Marys can decarb for nighttime relief. A veteran at Kings Bay with acute PTSD episodes can vape for immediate support.
Farm Bill Compliance: Legal Access for Camden County
The 2018 Farm Bill legalized hemp-derived products containing less than 0.3% delta-9 THC at the federal level. Our sublingual oil contains only 90 mg delta-9 THC in a 30 mL bottle — 3 mg/mL — well under that threshold. All cannabinoids are hemp-derived.
For Camden County residents: Georgia’s hemp program aligns with federal law. You can legally purchase, possess, and use our products. No medical card required. No qualifying conditions. Just age 21+.
Important legal notice: THCa converts to delta-9 THC when heated. You are responsible for understanding and complying with Georgia law. We ship with full documentation, Certificates of Analysis, and receipts. International customers accept all customs risk.
Open-Source Formulas: Our Promise to Camden County
Rick Simpson gave his oil away for free. We sell a professionally manufactured product, but we publish the complete recipe so anyone who can’t afford it can make their own. That’s not marketing — it’s our founding principle.

The Bentley Story: Where This All Began
Our founder Colin’s dog Bentley was paralyzed, facing euthanasia. Vets said pain meds would destroy his organs. A rescue worker named Jessica asked: “You’ve moved how many tons of weed and you’ve never heard of CBD?” That question changed everything.
Colin made CBD golden paste. Bentley got up and brought him his ball. From paralyzed to playing fetch. Dogs don’t respond to placebo. That was cannabinoid medicine doing what pharmaceuticals could not.
Bentley lived ten more years, dying naturally at twenty. During those years, Colin developed formulas for every age-related condition Bentley faced. Neurodegeneration led to CBG research. Dementia led to CBC. Glaucoma led to THC. Arthritis led to multi-pathway anti-inflammatory approaches.
When Colin later faced his own PTSD and Xanax addiction, he used those same cannabinoid principles to quit benzos cold turkey. The Peace Gummies formula was created during midnight experiments while fighting through withdrawal. Colin personally uses the vape form for insomnia and severe PTSD today.
This isn’t corporate marketing. This is lived experience turned into science.
Evidence for Every Compound: What Science Actually Says
We don’t hide behind vague claims. Here’s the evidence hierarchy for each cannabinoid in our formula:
CBD: Strongest human evidence for seizure disorders. Significant anxiolytic signal in 2024 meta-analysis. Promising but heterogeneous pain literature. Sleep evidence remains weak. Safety concerns include liver enzyme elevation and drug interactions.
CBG: Mostly preclinical. Pharmacologically interesting for neurologic disorders and inflammation, but human evidence is sparse. Commercially sold while evidence is thin.
Delta-8 THC: Pharmacologically relevant, psychoactive, less potent than delta-9. Evidence base dominated by animal studies and public-health concerns. Manufacturing quality concerns are real.
THCa: Non-psychoactive precursor. Evidence suggests anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective potential in vitro, but human data is limited. Chemistry changes with heating and storage.
Delta-9 THC: Strongest human evidence among psychoactive cannabinoids for nausea, appetite, some pain and MS symptoms. Clear safety liabilities: impairment, psychiatric risks, dependency. High-concentration products linked to psychosis and CUD.
CBN: Sleep reputation far stronger than evidence. No clinical trials with validated sleep measures. Weak human data.
CBC: Emerging preclinical interest. Antinociceptive, antibacterial, neurobiological potential. Clinically immature.
Terpenes: Limonene, myrcene, caryophyllene, pinene, linalool, humulene, terpinolene — all have plausible preclinical bioactivity, but robust human clinical proof is limited. Caryophyllene’s CB2 agonism is mechanistically interesting. Limonene and linalool oxidation products can be allergens.

Final Word for Camden County
We know Camden County is a place where people take care of each other. Where military families sacrifice. Where neighbors help neighbors. Where you don’t have time for hype or empty promises.
Our RSO formulas were born from desperation — a dying dog, a man trapped in benzo addiction, friends lost to violence in the Borderplex. We didn’t start in a boardroom. We started in a backyard trying to save a family member.
Every milligram in our formula is documented. Every claim is backed by actual research. Every bottle ships with a COA you can verify. And if you can’t afford it, we’ll tell you how to make it yourself.
That’s not how most companies operate. But it’s how we believe medicine should work.
If you’re in Camden County and you’re considering RSO, we hope this guide gives you the knowledge to make an informed decision. Talk to your doctor. Review the evidence. Start low, go slow. And if you decide to try our product, know that it was made with the same care Colin used to keep Bentley alive for ten more years.
That’s our promise. No snake oil. No hype. Just real formulas, real evidence, and real people who care.
