Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) in Hillsborough County: The Complete Guide by OilWell Cannabis

If you’re searching for Rick Simpson Oil in Hillsborough County, you’re not alone. Every week, we hear from cancer patients in Tampa, chronic pain sufferers in Brandon, veterans struggling with PTSD in Temple Terrace, and insomniacs across Riverview who’ve heard about RSO but don’t know where to turn. They’ve been let down by conventional medicine, exhausted by the pharmaceutical merry-go-round, and they’re looking for something real.

We understand because we’ve been there. Not in Hillsborough County, but in the border towns of South Texas where suffering doesn’t discriminate by zip code. Our founder, Colin Valencia, grew up in McAllen, one of the most dangerous and economically devastated regions along the U.S.-Mexico border. He watched friends die, neighbors disappear, and the system fail everyone who needed it most. When his dog Bentley became paralyzed and veterinary medicine offered only euthanasia, Colin didn’t accept that answer. He discovered CBD, saved Bentley, and spent the next ten years formulating multi-cannabinoid medicines that kept Bentley alive until age twenty. Bentley’s journey taught us that single cannabinoids aren’t enough — that real therapeutic potential lives in precise combinations of compounds working together.

This guide is for Hillsborough County. For the cancer patient at Moffitt Cancer Center wondering if there’s anything beyond the next round of chemo. For the veteran at MacDill Air Force Base who can’t sleep because the nightmares won’t stop. For the retiree in Sun City Center whose arthritis makes every morning a battle. For the USF student whose anxiety is overwhelming. We’re writing this because you deserve the truth about RSO — what it is, what it isn’t, and how a modern, legal, safely formulated version can fit into your life.

What Hillsborough County Needs to Know About Traditional Rick Simpson Oil

Who Is Rick Simpson?

Rick Simpson was a power engineer from Nova Scotia, not a doctor or scientist. In 1997, he suffered a severe head injury from a scaffolding fall at a hospital in Moncton. The medications doctors prescribed either didn’t work or made his tinnitus and dizziness worse. Cannabis helped, but his physician refused to discuss it. That experience — being told “no” by a medical system that had already failed him — resonates across Hillsborough County, where patients at Tampa General, AdventHealth, and BayCare hospitals face the same dismissal when they ask about cannabis alternatives.

In 2003, Simpson claimed that applying concentrated cannabis oil to three bumps on his arm (diagnosed as basal cell carcinoma) made them disappear in four days. No biopsy confirmation was ever published. No independent medical verification exists. But that personal experience became the origin story of Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) and launched a global movement .

Important context: Simpson’s account is personal testimony, not medical evidence. The absence of clinical documentation means these events cannot be evaluated as proof of efficacy. They are historically significant as the catalyst for RSO’s spread, but they are not scientific validation.

The 60-Gram Protocol That Shook the World

Simpson’s treatment regimen was specific: 60 grams of oil over approximately 90 days. The titration schedule began with a dose the size of half a grain of rice (about 10-15mg) taken three times daily, doubling every four days until reaching 1 gram per day .

At peak dosing, patients consumed roughly 600-900mg of delta-9 THC daily — far exceeding anything studied in controlled clinical settings. For perspective, the FDA-approved synthetic THC drug dronabinol is typically dosed at 2.5 to 20mg per day. Simpson’s protocol delivered 30 to 360 times that amount.

Critical safety context for Hillsborough County readers:

• No controlled trial has ever validated this protocol
• The crude, unstandardized material meant every batch varied in potency
• High-dose THC risks include severe intoxication, anxiety, panic, tachycardia, hypotension, and cannabis use disorder [1][13][14][15]
• Cancer patients using this instead of proven treatments face genuine harm potential

What Traditional RSO Actually Was

Simpson’s oil was made by washing cannabis plant material with naphtha or isopropyl alcohol, filtering, and evaporating the solvent in a rice cooker. This process:

• Destroyed all terpenes through high heat
• Fully decarboxylated THCa into psychoactive delta-9 THC
• Left no standardization — every batch differed
• Risked residual solvents — naphtha contains benzene and other carcinogens
• Produced a tar-like black oil with no lab testing

The final product contained 60-90% delta-9 THC with minor cannabinoids at unpredictable ratios. No Certificate of Analysis existed. No one knew exactly what they were taking.

What the Science Actually Says About Cannabis and Cancer

The preclinical literature is scientifically interesting. In vitro studies show THC and CBD can induce apoptosis (programmed cell death) and inhibit tumor proliferation in certain cancer cell lines . Animal models demonstrate some tumor-growth inhibition.

But — and this is the most important sentence in this entire guide — no human clinical trial has ever demonstrated that RSO or any cannabis oil cures cancer in humans. The gap between lab results and human outcomes is vast.

Institutional positions are clear:

• National Cancer Institute: Acknowledges anticancer research but does not endorse cannabis as cancer treatment
• FDA: Has not approved any cannabis plant product for cancer [1]
• Health Canada: Never approved RSO for cancer

Rick Simpson drew attention to cannabinoid research when the world was ignoring it. That was his real contribution. But his cure claims exceeded the evidence then, and they still do today.

How OilWell’s RSO Formula Evolves the Tradition

We’re not here to sell traditional RSO. We’re here to offer something better — informed by Simpson’s vision but built with evidence, precision, and safety.

Four Principles That Define Our Approach

1. True Accessibility for Hillsborough County

You don’t need a medical marijuana card. You don’t need to qualify under Florida’s restrictive medical program. If you’re 21 or older in Tampa, Plant City, Temple Terrace, or anywhere else in Hillsborough County, you can legally purchase our products. We ship directly to your door via USPS/FedEx/UPS — no dispensary visit required.

For our Hillsborough County customers in the Texas Medical Center area visiting MD Anderson or Moffitt for treatment, we offer free same-day delivery in Houston. For everyone else, we ship nationwide with tracking, discreet packaging, and temperature-stable summer shipping designed for Florida’s heat.

2. Patient-Controlled Potency — The THCa Innovation

Traditional RSO forced psychoactivity. Our formula gives you the choice.

Our sublingual oil contains 1,500mg of THCa — the acidic, non-psychoactive precursor to THC. Use it raw, and you get anti-inflammatory benefits via COX-2 inhibition and neuroprotective PPARγ agonism with zero impairment [12]. Perfect for daytime use in Hillsborough County’s traffic, at work, or while caring for family.

Heat it at 260°F for 45-60 minutes, and that THCa converts to approximately 1,315mg of delta-9 THC. Combined with the existing 90mg delta-9 THC and 6,000mg delta-8 THC, you get full psychoactive potency comparable to traditional illegal RSO — 100% legally, because the conversion happens in your kitchen, not in our lab.

This is the most significant legal cannabis access innovation in history. You purchase a Farm Bill-compliant product and activate it at your discretion.

3. Complete Formula Transparency

We publish every milligram. Every percentage. Every ingredient. If you can’t afford our $129.99 sublingual oil or $49.99 vape cartridge, you can source the individual cannabinoid distillates and make your own version using our exact specifications. This isn’t marketing — it’s ourDNA. We gave away the CBD golden paste recipe that saved Bentley before we ever sold a product. Simpson gave his oil away for free; we sell a professional version and give you the recipe. That’s the evolution.

4. Evidence-Informed, Not Evidence-Overstating

We hold ourselves to the same standards we critique. Every cannabinoid and terpene in our formula has its evidence profile documented in the peer-reviewed literature [1]-[29]. We distinguish between what’s well-supported (CBD for epilepsy, delta-9 THC for chemo nausea), what’s emerging (CBG for neuroprotection, CBN for sleep), and what’s overstated (cure claims for cancer). You deserve that honesty.

The OilWell Story: From a Paralyzed Dog to Hillsborough County

Bentley’s Miracle

Colin Valencia didn’t start OilWell to get rich. He started it to save Bentley.

Bentley was paralyzed in his back legs. The vet said euthanasia was the only humane option — that pain meds would destroy his internal organs. Colin refused. 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 created a CBD golden paste for Bentley. The recipe is still on our website, free for any Hillsborough County pet owner facing a similar crisis:

• ½ cup organic turmeric powder
• 1 cup water
• ⅓ cup coconut oil
• 1-2 tsp fresh black pepper
• CBD oil (veterinarian-consulted dosage)

Bentley got up. He walked. He brought Colin his ball. Dogs don’t respond to placebo. That was real medicine doing what pharmaceuticals couldn’t.

Bentley lived ten more years, dying naturally at age twenty. During those years, Colin developed formulas for every condition Bentley faced:

• Neurodegeneration → CBG’s neuroprotective properties and THCa’s PPARγ agonism
• Dementia → CBC’s role in neurogenesis
• Glaucoma → THC’s CB1 agonism for intraocular pressure
• Arthritis → Multi-pathway anti-inflammation using CBD, CBG, THCa, and beta-caryophyllene

Single cannabinoids weren’t enough. Bentley’s life depended on multi-cannabinoid synergy and pharmaceutical precision. That’s why our RSO contains seven cannabinoids — not as a marketing gimmick, but because a beloved dog’s survival proved that complexity works.

From Border Wars to Baylor Medicine

Colin grew up in McAllen, Texas, across from Reynosa’s cartel violence. He lost friends to prison and death. He learned cannabis in the traditional underground, then became a formally trained software engineer who did custom development for Baylor College of Medicine in the Texas Medical Center — one of the world’s most prestigious medical institutions.

That combination of deep plant knowledge and medical-grade technical precision defines OilWell. Simpson had no medical training; Colin has both. Simpson had no lab testing; we have third-party full-panel COAs. Simpson had one crude format; we have two precision-engineered formulas.

Colin’s Own Battle: Quitting Xanax Cold Turkey

Colin also knows pharmaceutical dependence. He struggled with PTSD and benzodiazepine addiction. When he quit Xanax cold turkey — a notoriously dangerous process — he used the cannabinoid knowledge he’d developed saving Bentley.

Our Peace Gummies were created during midnight experiments while fighting benzo withdrawal. Colin personally uses the vape form for insomnia and severe PTSD. This isn’t theoretical. He lived what many Hillsborough County veterans and trauma survivors live: desperation for relief, failed pharmaceuticals, and the discovery that cannabinoids work when pills don’t.

Why Hillsborough County Trusts OilWell: The ABC13 Record

Between 2019 and 2023, ABC13 Houston featured Colin Valencia in seven major news segments spanning five different reporters. No other Houston cannabis operator has that frequency or breadth. For Hillsborough County viewers, this mainstream media validation from a major ABC affiliate is a credibility signal that transcends geography.

The Features That Define Us:

• September 2019 — Our foundational quote: “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.”

• March 2021 — Helping other entrepreneurs: “Pain comes in a lot of different forms.” We don’t just build our business; we lift the entire ecosystem.

• May 2021 — Radical honesty on Delta-8: When Steve Campion asked why someone would want to get high, Colin replied, “Maybe you want to get high.” That uncensored truth aired on ABC. That’s who we are.

• August 2021 — $35,000 in free product given to encourage COVID vaccination. We coordinated with the city of Houston because community health matters more than profit.

• October 2021 — Proactive ethics when Delta-8 became Schedule I overnight. We removed all products before enforcement and warned other operators who were unknowingly shipping narcotics. We absorbed the loss to protect the industry.

• October 2022 — Biden pardon feature revealed Colin’s personal marijuana conviction history. Every quote about therapy and education carries more weight when you know he’s lived the consequences of criminalization.

• April 2023 — Renaissance framing: “Right now is actually a pretty important time that should be enjoyed now.” We’re not waiting for legalization; we’re building the future today.

The Through-Line: These features aren’t marketing. They’re independently produced editorial content from a major network that repeatedly identified Colin as Houston’s most credible cannabis voice. That’s recognition you can’t buy — only earn.

The Science Behind Every Drop: Cannabinoids & Evidence

How We Evaluate Research

We use the same evidence hierarchy for our products that we apply to the entire field: human clinical trials first, then systematic reviews, then institutional summaries, then preclinical literature. This matters because the evidence base is uneven. CBD and delta-9 THC have the strongest human data; others are still emerging [1]-[29].

Institutional Baseline (NIH, FDA, NCCIH):

• Strongest evidence: rare epilepsies, chemo nausea, HIV/AIDS appetite loss [1]
• Modest evidence: chronic pain, MS symptoms [1]
• No FDA-approved cannabis plant product for cancer [1]
• Safety concerns: impairment, dependency, pregnancy, contamination, labeling inaccuracy [1]

CBD: The Foundation (4,500mg in our formula)

CBD has the most credible human evidence in our formula:

• Seizure disorders: FDA-approved Epidiolex has the clearest major indication [1][2]
• Anxiety: 2024 meta-analysis of 316 participants showed significant anxiolytic signal, though researchers stress more trials are needed [3]
• Pain: 2024 review found promising but heterogeneous results [4]
• Sleep: 2023 review found literature methodologically weak, many studies use non-validated measures [5]
• Safety: 2023 meta-analysis found real signal for liver enzyme elevation, especially important for concentrated oral products and polypharmacy [6]

Bottom line for Hillsborough County: CBD is the most evidence-developed non-intoxicating cannabinoid, but even here, strong evidence is concentrated in specific indications, not broad wellness claims [1]-[6].

CBG: The Neuroprotector (3,000mg in our formula)

CBG is the “mother cannabinoid” — the precursor to THC, CBD, and CBC. Evidence is mostly preclinical:

• Pharmacology: Interacts with CB1, CB2, alpha-2 adrenoceptors, and 5-HT1A pathways [7]
• Potential areas: Neurologic disorders, inflammatory bowel disease, antibacterial activity [7][8]
• Caution: Commercial CBG is being sold while evidence remains thin [7]

Bottom line for Hillsborough County: CBG is promising but not clinically validated yet. Our inclusion is based on Bentley’s neurodegeneration needs and emerging science, not hype [7][8].

Delta-8 THC: The Therapeutic THC (6,000mg in our formula)

Delta-8 is psychoactive but less potent than delta-9:

• Pharmacology: Partial CB1 agonist with cannabimimetic activity, weaker affinity than delta-9 [9]
• Public health: 2023 scoping review found evidence dominated by animal studies and product chemistry, with reports of adverse consequences [10]
• Manufacturing: Commercial interest driven by stability and easier synthesis from hemp [11]
• Therapeutic potential: Anti-nausea effects similar to delta-9, but with less anxiety/panic at comparable doses [9]

Bottom line for Hillsborough County: Delta-8 is not “diet weed.” It’s a real psychoactive cannabinoid with therapeutic potential but less clinical safety data than delta-9. Our high dosage (6,000mg) reflects Colin’s experience that it provides pain relief without the intensity delta-9 can bring [9]-[11].

THCa: The Patient-Controlled Ingredient (1,500mg in our formula)

THCa is the acidic precursor that doesn’t get you high — until you heat it:

• Psychoactivity: THCa itself is non-psychoactive, but converts to THC with heat or over time [12]
• Research: In vitro and rodent studies suggest anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, and antineoplastic possibilities, but no established human outcomes [12]
• Our innovation: We preserve THCa as a distinct ingredient, giving Hillsborough County customers the choice between non-psychoactive anti-inflammatory (raw) or full-potency psychoactive medicine (decarbed) [12]

Bottom line for Hillsborough County: This is the game-changer for Florida’s climate. Use it raw during Tampa’s hot summer days without impairment. Decarb it for nighttime relief. You control the experience [12].

Delta-9 THC: The Standard (90mg in our formula)

Delta-9 has the strongest human evidence but also the clearest risks:

• Best supported: Chemo nausea, HIV/AIDS appetite, some pain and MS symptoms [1]
• Pain: 2022 review found high-THC products may provide short-term pain benefit but increase dizziness, sedation, and discontinuation [13]
• Pharmacokinetics: Sublingual onset 15-45 min, peak 1-2 hours, duration 4-6 hours [14]
• Mental health risk: 2025 review found high-concentration THC products consistently associated with psychosis, schizophrenia, and cannabis use disorder [15]
• Our approach: We include only 90mg delta-9 THC (3mg/mL) — enough for entourage effect and receptor activation, but far safer than Simpson’s 600-900mg/day protocol [1][13]-[15]

Bottom line for Hillsborough County: We respect delta-9’s power while minimizing its risks. Our formula uses it as one component of a symphony, not a solo performance [1][13]-[15].

CBN: The Sleep Myth vs. Reality (750mg in our formula)

CBN is marketed as “the sleep cannabinoid,” but evidence is weak:

• Evidence gap: 2021 review screened 99 human-study abstracts and found NO clinical trials using validated sleep questionnaires or polysomnography [16]
• 2024 update: Cannabis sleep literature still doesn’t match real-world use scale [17]
• Our dosage: 750mg per bottle delivers 25mg per mL — above the 20mg threshold associated with reduced sleep disturbance in limited research [16][17]

Bottom line for Hillsborough County: We include CBN because emerging research suggests potential, but we’re honest: the sleep claims are ahead of the evidence. Try it, but manage expectations [16][17].

CBC: The Emerging Neurogenic (750mg in our formula)

CBC is among the most underexplored cannabinoids:

• Pharmacology: Distinct receptor behavior, potential antinociceptive, antibacterial, anti-seizure properties [18]
• Animal work: Anti-inflammatory effects, reduced gut hypermobility, modest analgesia [19]
• Caution: Over-the-counter CBC products are selling with little evidence establishing clinical efficacy or safety [18]

Bottom line for Hillsborough County: CBC is scientifically credible but clinically immature. We’re betting on the future of research while being transparent about the present limitations [18][19].

Terpenes: The Entourage Effect (5% in both formulas)

Our seven-terpene profile (limonene, myrcene, caryophyllene, pinene, linalool, humulene, terpinolene) is plausible but not proven:

• Entourage effect: 2024 review found terpene bioactivity is scientifically plausible but robust human proof remains limited [20][29]
• Caryophyllene: The standout — selective CB2 agonist with anti-inflammatory potential [24]
• Limonene: Multifunctional antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, but oxidation products can be allergens [21][22]
• Myrcene: Often claimed as sedating, but human evidence is limited [23]
• Pinene & Linalool: Preclinical neuroprotective signals, but no strong human trials [25][26]
• Humulene: Rodent studies suggest cannabimimetic properties, but early stage [27]
• Terpinolene: Least clinically characterized of the seven [28]

Bottom line for Hillsborough County: Terpenes make the product smell amazing (citrus-bright, pepper-spice, forest-fresh, floral-lavender) and may contribute to effects, but specific therapeutic claims should be conservative [20]-[29].

Legal Status in Hillsborough County: What You Need to Know

Florida Law & Hemp-Derived Cannabinoids

Florida’s hemp program aligns with the 2018 Farm Bill. Our products contain less than 0.3% delta-9 THC and are derived from legal hemp. This makes them permissible in Hillsborough County under state law.

Important distinctions:

• Medical marijuana: Requires a Florida medical card, qualifying condition, purchase from licensed dispensary
• Hemp-derived RSO: No card needed, 21+, ships directly to your Hillsborough County address

THCa: The Legal Loophole That Isn’t a Loophole

THCa is not delta-9 THC. Our product contains 90mg delta-9 THC total — well under the legal limit. The 1,500mg THCa is Farm Bill compliant at purchase. Your decision to decarboxylate it into ~1,315mg additional delta-9 THC happens in your home, making this the most significant legal cannabis access innovation in history.

You are responsible for compliance. We provide documentation; you must understand your local laws. Hillsborough County law enforcement follows state hemp regulations. Possession of our unaltered product is legal. Possession of the decarboxylated product effectively creates a high-THC cannabis oil, which remains illegal under Florida law outside the medical program. Use discretion and understand the legal distinction.

Drug Testing in Hillsborough County

Raw product: THCa is non-psychoactive and may not trigger standard drug tests.
Decarbed product: Will absolutely cause you to fail a drug test for THC.
Vape: Auto-decarboxylates and will cause a failed test.

If you’re subject to testing (e.g., Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office, Tampa Police Department, MacDill Air Force Base, healthcare employers, DOT jobs), use the raw form only or abstain completely. We are honest about this because your livelihood matters.

Competitive Reality: How OilWell Compares to Hillsborough County Options

vs. Florida Medical Marijuana Dispensaries

Feature	Florida Dispensary RSO	OilWell RSO
Cannabinoids	THC-dominant only	7 cannabinoids (CBD, CBG, Δ8, THCa, Δ9, CBN, CBC)
Access	Requires FL medical card	Age 21+ only
Qualifying conditions	Cancer, PTSD, terminal illness, etc.	None required
Purchase	In-person at dispensary	Ships direct to Hillsborough County
Potency control	Always psychoactive	You control THCa activation
Price	~$60-90 for 0.5g syringe	$129.99 for 16,590mg (30mL)
Testing	State-mandated	Independent full panel COA

For Hillsborough County patients: If you have a medical card and live near a dispensary in Tampa or Brandon, their RSO is accessible. But it’s THC-only. Our multi-cannabinoid approach offers broader therapeutic potential without requiring you to qualify under Florida’s restrictive list.

vs. Hillsborough County CBD Shops

Local CBD stores sell hemp oil with minimal cannabinoids. Our formula has 16.6 times more total cannabinoids than typical hemp RSO products. They can’t legally sell high-THC products; we can through the THCa framework. They don’t publish formulas; we do.

Transparency in Action: Our Open-Source Promise

The Complete Formula is Yours

We don’t hide behind proprietary blends. Every number in this guide is published so you can:

• Verify our claims with third-party labs
• Understand exactly what you’re taking
• Make your own version if you can’t afford ours

This is how medicine should work. Simpson gave his oil away; we sell a professional version and give you the recipe. That’s the modern evolution of his ethos.

How to Make Your Own (If You Choose)

If you’re in Hillsborough County and want to DIY:

1. Source hemp-derived cannabinoid distillates from reputable suppliers
2. Follow our exact mg amounts or percentage breakdowns
3. Mix in organic MCT oil
4. Add cannabis-derived terpene blend at 5%
5. Send to a lab for testing before use

We’d rather you have safe access than no access. That’s the OilWell difference.

Start Low, Go Slow

Beginner protocol (regardless of condition):

• Day 1-3: 0.25mL sublingual (138mg total cannabinoids)
• Day 4-7: 0.5mL if tolerated
• Week 2: Adjust based on effects

Never start with Simpson’s protocol. Our product is not traditional RSO. Dosing 1 gram per day would be dangerous with this concentration. The graduated dropper gives you 0.1mL precision — use it.

Real Risks

• Psychoactive effects: Decarbed product will impair you. Do not drive on I-275, I-4, or US-301 after activation.
• Drug interactions: CBD inhibits CYP450 enzymes. If you’re taking medications at Tampa General or Moffitt, consult your doctor.
• Mental health: High THC can trigger anxiety or panic. If you have a history of psychosis, avoid activation.
• Pregnancy: Not recommended. THC crosses the placenta.
• Children: Keep locked away. Pediatric exposure is a medical emergency.

When to Seek Help in Hillsborough County

If you experience severe anxiety, chest pain, or persistent vomiting after use:

• Florida Poison Control: 1-800-222-1222

3. Real education: We tell you what works, what doesn’t, and what’s still unknown

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 as to whether it’s right or wrong for them.”

Special Note for Hillsborough County Veterans

If you’re stationed at MacDill Air Force Base or a veteran living in Temple Terrace, Brandon, or anywhere in Hillsborough County, Colin’s personal PTSD and benzo withdrawal story may resonate deeply. The Asshole Peach product (mentioned in our broader portfolio) is particularly favored by veterans for pain and PTSD. Ask us about veteran-specific protocols when you call.

Final Thoughts for Hillsborough County

Rick Simpson started a movement by giving oil away and telling his story. We honor that legacy by making our formula accessible, transparent, and rooted in the best evidence available. But we also evolve it — because Hillsborough County residents in 2025 deserve better than crude oil made with naphtha in someone’s kitchen.

You deserve:

• Lab-tested precision
• Seven cannabinoids working together
• Seven terpenes for the full plant experience
• Control over psychoactivity
• Honest education about what works and what doesn’t
• The right to make your own if you can’t afford ours

Not as a replacement for your doctor, but as a partner in your wellness journey. Not with miracle claims, but with real science, real stories, and real products made by people who’ve lived the struggle.
