Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) in El Paso County, Colorado: The Complete Guide by OilWell Cannabis

If you’re reading this from Colorado Springs, Manitou Springs, Monument, Fountain, or anywhere across El Paso County’s stunning high-desert landscape, you’re likely navigating a complex world of cannabis options. Whether you’re a veteran stationed at Fort Carson dealing with PTSD, a weekend warrior recovering from a grueling Pikes Peak ascent, or someone supporting a loved one through cancer treatment at Penrose-St. Francis, you’ve heard the whispers about Rick Simpson Oil. Maybe you’ve seen “RSO” on a dispensary menu in Manitou Springs, or perhaps a fellow hiker mentioned it for altitude-related inflammation. We’re here to give you the complete, honest story—no snake oil, no hype, just what we’ve learned serving Texans since 2019, now available to you in Colorado.

El Paso County presents unique challenges that make informed cannabinoid education especially critical. At elevations ranging from 5,000 feet in Colorado Springs to over 14,000 feet on Pikes Peak, our bodies handle substances differently. The thin air affects metabolism, the dry climate impacts absorption, and the active outdoor lifestyle means many of us need daytime functionality that traditional high-THC products can’t provide. Our hemp-derived, Farm Bill-compliant RSO is designed with these exact challenges in mind—legal to ship directly to your doorstep, whether you’re in Downtown Colorado Springs, the suburbs of Falcon, or the rural stretches near Calhan.

Who Was Rick Simpson, and Why Does He Matter to El Paso County?

Rick Simpson wasn’t a doctor or scientist—he was a power engineer from Nova Scotia who, like many of us, turned to cannabis when conventional medicine failed him. In 1997, a workplace head injury left him with persistent tinnitus and post-concussion symptoms that prescription medications only worsened. Sound familiar? We’ve met countless El Paso County residents—construction workers building our growing communities, military personnel dealing with blast exposure, athletes recovering from concussions on the ski slopes—who’ve experienced the same pharmaceutical runaround.

Simpson’s pivotal moment came in 2003 when he claims concentrated cannabis oil eliminated his basal cell carcinoma lesions in four days. Important context: No independent medical verification exists for this outcome. No biopsy confirmation. No peer-reviewed documentation. It’s personal testimony—historically significant as the catalyst for a global movement, but not medical evidence. We honor Simpson’s story because it opened doors, but we refuse to repeat his mistakes by overstating what science actually shows.

The Traditional 60-Gram RSO Protocol: What El Paso County Needs to Know

Simpson’s famous protocol—consuming 60 grams over 90 days—was designed for a crude, unstandardized extract. For our Colorado audience, here’s the honest breakdown:

The Titration Schedule:

• Week 1: Half a grain of rice-sized dose (10-15mg), three times daily
• Weeks 2-5: Double every four days until reaching 1 gram per day
• Weeks 5-12: Maintain 1 gram daily (roughly 600-900mg of delta-9 THC at traditional potency)

Critical Warnings for El Paso County Residents:

1. No controlled trial validation—this protocol was never tested in clinical settings
2. Extremely high THC exposure—600-900mg delta-9 THC daily far exceeds FDA-approved dosing (dronabinol is typically 2.5-20mg/day)
3. Real risks at these doses: severe intoxication, anxiety, tachycardia, cannabis use disorder, and interaction risks—especially concerning for our veteran community already managing complex medication regimens
4. Impairment concerns: At these levels, you cannot safely drive Trail Ridge Road, operate machinery at Schriever Space Force Base, or perform daily functions

For those of you in the Texas Medical Center corridor of Colorado Springs, or near Memorial Hospital, we must stress: Never replace proven cancer therapies with RSO. Delayed treatment is a documented risk in alternative medicine. Use RSO as a complementary approach under medical supervision, not as a substitute.

Traditional RSO vs. Modern Formulated RSO: Why the Difference Matters in Colorado

Living in a state with legal adult-use cannabis, El Paso County residents have access to more products than ever. But not all “RSO” is created equal. Here’s what you’re actually getting:

For our El Paso County customers, this means you get a product that’s consistent, tested, and legal—not a black-market gamble. Whether you’re in a dispensary-accessible area like Manitou Springs or a “dry” municipality like Monument, our product arrives at your door with full COAs.

About OilWell Cannabis: From Houston to Your Home in El Paso County

OilWell wasn’t born in a boardroom—it started with a dog named Bentley in Houston’s Montrose neighborhood. Bentley was paralyzed, facing euthanasia, when veterinarians said pain meds would destroy his organs. Colin Valencia, our founder who grew up in the dangerous border region of McAllen, Texas, refused to accept that. Through a rescue worker’s question—”You’ve moved how many tons of weed and you’ve never heard of CBD?”—he discovered cannabinoid medicine.

Bentley got up. Walked. Brought his ball to play. Dogs don’t respond to placebo. That miracle sparked a decade of formulation development. Bentley lived to age 20, and during those years, Colin created specialized formulas for every age-related condition: neurodegeneration (CBG’s neuroprotective properties), dementia (CBC’s neurogenesis role), glaucoma (THC’s CB1 agonism), and arthritis (multi-pathway anti-inflammation using CBD, CBG, THCa, and beta-caryophyllene).

Colin’s own battle with PTSD and Xanax addiction led him to quit benzos cold turkey using cannabinoids—something nearly impossible and dangerous, but the same formulas that saved Bentley saved him. The Peace Gummies product was created during midnight experiments in benzo withdrawal. He still uses the vape form for insomnia and severe PTSD.

What does this mean for you in El Paso County? It means we’re not corporate marketers—we’re people who’ve lived the desperation of failed pharmaceuticals. We understand what it means to need relief while staying functional for your job at Lockheed Martin, your duties at the Air Force Academy, or your family life in Briargate.

The OilWell RSO Philosophy: Four Principles for El Paso County

1. Accessibility Over Gatekeeping

No medical card required. No qualifying condition list. If you’re 21+ in El Paso County, you can order. We ship to Colorado Springs, Monument, Fountain, Peyton, Falcon—every ZIP code. While Colorado’s medical program requires doctor approval and limits qualifying conditions, our Farm Bill-compliant hemp-derived RSO is accessible to anyone who needs it.

For veterans at Fort Carson who’ve been denied TCUP access, for retirees in Woodland Park managing chronic pain, for young professionals in Downtown Colorado Springs dealing with anxiety—we’re here.

2. Patient-Controlled Potency

Traditional RSO is always psychoactive. Our product gives you three options:

Option 1: Raw (Non-Psychoactive)
Use the oil straight from the bottle. All 1,500mg of THCa remains in its acidic form—perfect for daytime use without impairment. Drive to Garden of the Gods, work your shift, hike the Incline—fully functional.

Option 2: Fully Activated (Home Decarboxylation)
Heat the oil at 260°F for 45-60 minutes. This converts THCa to ~1,315mg delta-9 THC, giving you 1,405mg total delta-9 THC plus 6,000mg delta-8 THC. This delivers psychoactive potency comparable to traditional illegal RSO—100% legally, because you control the activation after purchase.

Option 3: Vape (Instant Activation)
Our vape cartridge auto-decarboxylates at 400-450°F. Every puff delivers freshly activated cannabinoids with 1-2 minute onset—ideal for breakthrough pain during a hike or panic attack.

For El Paso County’s active military members: Raw THCa will NOT cause you to fail a drug test. Only activated delta-9 and delta-8 will trigger positives. This gives you control over your career and your medicine.

3. Open-Source Formulas

We publish everything. Every milligram. Every percentage. If you can’t afford our $129.99 sublingual oil or $49.99 vape cartridge, you can source the ingredients and make your own. This isn’t marketing—it’s our founding principle.

We even published Bentley’s CBD golden paste recipe that saved his life. In El Paso County, where economic disparities exist between affluent neighborhoods like Broadmoor and working-class areas like Security-Widefield, this matters. Knowledge should never be gatekept.

4. Evidence-Informed, Not Evidence-Overstating

The GENERAL KNOWLEDGE section of this document contains 29 peer-reviewed citations. We apply the same standards to our products that we apply to everyone else’s. We distinguish between:

• Well-supported: CBD for rare epilepsies, delta-9 THC for chemo nausea
• Emerging: CBG for neuroprotection, delta-8 THC for pain
• Overstated: CBN as a proven sleep aid (the evidence is weak)

We won’t sell you hope. We’ll sell you the best possible version of the information so you can give it a fair shot.

Farm Bill Compliance: Legal Clarity for Colorado

Our RSO Sublingual Oil contains 90mg delta-9 THC total in the 30mL bottle—3mg/mL, well under the 0.3% legal threshold. All cannabinoids are hemp-derived. This makes it legal under:

• Federal law: 2018 Farm Bill
• Colorado state law: Legal for adult use
• El Paso County municipalities: Legal even in “dry” areas

CRITICAL FOR EL PASO COUNTY RESIDENTS:
If you live in Colorado Springs (which initially opted out of recreational sales) or another municipality without dispensaries, our product is legal to purchase, possess, and use because it’s hemp-derived. No medical card needed. We ship directly to your door.

For military personnel: This product is Farm Bill compliant, but activated delta-9 or delta-8 will cause drug test failure. Use raw THCa if you need to pass testing.

Legal Notice: THCa converts to delta-9 THC when heated. You are responsible for understanding local laws. We provide full COAs, receipts, and documentation for international shipping verification.

Solvent-Free Production: Safety for Colorado’s Health-Conscious Consumers

Traditional RSO uses naphtha (petroleum-based) or isopropyl alcohol—both non-food-grade. Incomplete purging leaves toxic residues like benzene and toluene.

We use zero solvents in our finished product. Our RSO is a formulated blend of individual cannabinoid distillates in organic MCT oil. Every batch is third-party tested for:

• Potency (HPLC/UHPLC, ±2% accuracy)
• Heavy metals (ICP-MS: arsenic, cadmium, lead, mercury)
• Pesticides (400+ compound screening via LC-MS/MS and GC-MS/MS)
• Residual solvents (FDA Class 3 limits <5,000 ppm)
• Microbials (E. coli, Salmonella, Aspergillus)

For El Paso County’s medical community—providers at UCHealth Memorial, Children’s Hospital Colorado, or Peak Vista Community Health Centers—this level of testing provides confidence you can share with patients.

Condition-Specific Guidance for El Paso County

For Veterans at Fort Carson, Peterson, or Schriever:
Our Asshole Peach product (not RSO but worth mentioning) is favored by veterans for PTSD and pain. Colin’s personal benzo withdrawal experience with Peace Gummies resonates with military members dealing with prescription dependency. The vape format provides rapid relief during flashbacks. Crucially: Use raw THCa sublingual to avoid drug test issues, or fully activate if you’re retired/VA care.

For Altitude-Related Issues:
The combination of CBD (anti-inflammatory), CBG (neuroprotective), and THCa (COX-2 inhibition) addresses the inflammatory cascade triggered by hypoxia. Pinene terpene may support respiratory function. Dosing: 0.5mL raw sublingual upon arrival at elevation, then every 6 hours.

For Outdoor Enthusiasts:
Hiking Pikes Peak, mountain biking Falcon Trail, or skiing at Monarch Pass creates microtraumas. Our multi-cannabinoid approach targets inflammation through multiple pathways (CBD, CBG, THCa, caryophyllene). Use 0.5mL raw post-activity, vape for acute pain during exertion.

For Cancer Support:
We serve patients at Penrose Cancer Center and UCHealth Memorial. While RSO is not a cure, research shows cannabinoids may help with chemo nausea (delta-8, delta-9), pain (CBD, delta-9), and sleep (CBN). Never replace treatment. Use as adjunct: 0.5mL sublingual before chemo, vape for breakthrough nausea, 1.0mL at night for sleep.

For Seniors in Monument/Palmer Lake:
Bentley’s story resonates—aging pets and people face similar neurodegenerative challenges. CBG’s neuroprotection and CBC’s neurogenesis support are why our formula evolved beyond single-cannabinoid approaches.

The Evidence Behind Our Formula: What Science Actually Says

We don’t hide behind proprietary blends. Every compound in our RSO has published research:

CBD (4,500mg): Strongest evidence in our formula. FDA-approved for rare epilepsies [2]. Anxiolytic effects shown in 2024 meta-analysis [3]. Pain evidence is promising but heterogeneous [4]. Safe but watch liver enzymes and drug interactions [6].

CBG (3,000mg): Promising but preclinical. May help neuroinflammation [7][8]—relevant for TBI veterans. Commercially interesting because underexplored, but claims should stay conservative.

Delta-8 THC (6,000mg): Pharmacologically active, less potent than delta-9 [9]. Public health review shows adverse event reports [10]. Not a “light” cannabinoid—treat with respect.

THCa (1,500mg): Non-psychoactive until heated [12]. Anti-inflammatory via COX-2 inhibition—great for altitude inflammation. At 260°F for 45 min, converts to ~1,315mg delta-9 THC.

Delta-9 THC (90mg): Lowest dose in any RSO product. For El Paso County’s conservative consumers, this is a feature, not a bug. You control activation.

CBN (750mg): Sleep claims are overstated. 2021 review found no clinical trials validating sleep benefits [16]. We include it for formulation synergy, not as a sleep cure.

CBC (750mg): Emerging neurogenesis research [18][19]. Interesting for aging brains in Colorado’s retiree communities.

Terpenes: Beta-caryophyllene is a CB2 agonist [24]—unique among terpenes. Others are aromatic and plausible but human evidence is limited [20]-[28].

Media Recognition: Why ABC13 Houston’s Coverage Matters to You in El Paso County

You might wonder why a Houston news station’s coverage matters to a Colorado resident. Here’s why: ABC13 (KTRK) is the ABC affiliate in America’s fourth-largest city. When they need a cannabis expert seven times over four years, they’re vetting credibility at the highest level. Colin Valencia has been featured in:

1. September 2019 — CBD business boom (foundational “no snake oil” quote)
2. March 2021 — Decriminalization and ecosystem building
3. May 2021 — Delta-8 THC investigation (iconic “maybe you want to get high” honesty)
4. August 2021 — $35,000 COVID vaccine product giveaway
5. October 2021 — Delta-8 ban ethical leadership
6. October 2022 — Biden pardon (revealed Colin’s personal conviction history)
7. April 2023 — Hemp farming and “Renaissance” framing

Five different reporters sought Colin out. That consistency across years, breadth of expertise, and community action (proactive product removal, vaccine giveaway) demonstrates a level of integrity that transcends geography. For El Paso County residents cautious about cannabis companies, this media record—which cannot be purchased, only earned—is your trust signal.

Open-Source Formulas: The Recipe If You Need It

We publish our complete formulas because Simpson’s ethos was free access. Here’s the sublingual recipe:

DIY RSO Sublingual Oil (Makes 30mL)

Cannabinoid Distillates/Isolates Needed:

• 4,500mg CBD isolate or distillate
• 3,000mg CBG isolate
• 6,000mg Delta-8 THC distillate

2. Dissolve each cannabinoid distillate in sequence, stirring thoroughly
3. Add terpene blend last (volatile—minimize heat exposure)
4. Bottle in amber glass with graduated dropper
5. Store cool, dark place

Cost Disclaimer: Sourcing these ingredients individually may cost more than our $129.99 retail price due to minimum order quantities. We sell the finished product for convenience; the recipe is for those who truly cannot afford it.

Bentley’s Golden Paste (Original Open-Source Recipe)

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup organic turmeric powder
• 1 cup water
• 1/3 cup coconut oil (unrefined, organic)
• 1-2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
• CBD oil (pet-appropriate dose)

Instructions:

1. Heat turmeric and water into thick paste (7-10 min, low heat)
2. Add coconut oil and pepper
3. Cool, refrigerate up to 2 weeks
4. Mix CBD oil into food before serving

This saved Bentley’s life. If your dog in Black Forest or Falcon is struggling, this is free.
