Something that actually explains what you’re putting in your body and why.
We get it. Out here in Jessamine County, where the bluegrass meets the real world, people don’t have time for snake oil. You’ve got land to work, families to care for, and a community that watches out for its own.

That’s why we’re here.

ABOUT RICK SIMPSON AND TRADITIONAL RICK SIMPSON OIL
Who is Rick Simpson (And Why His Story Matters in Jessamine County)
Rick Simpson wasn’t a doctor, a scientist, or a pharmaceutical executive. He was a power engineer from Amherst, Nova Scotia—a tradesman who got hurt on the job in 1997 when scaffolding collapsed at a hospital in Moncton. The head injury left him with tinnitus, dizziness, and pain that prescription pills couldn’t touch. When he asked his doctor about cannabis, the doctor refused. So Rick found his own way.
In 2003, diagnosed with basal cell carcinoma, he applied concentrated cannabis oil to his skin lesions. According to his testimony, they disappeared in four days. No biopsy. No independent verification. But that personal experience—documented in the 2005 film Run From The Cure—became the origin story for what the world now calls Rick Simpson Oil .
Why this matters in Jessamine County: We know what it’s like when the medical system falls short. Maybe you’ve watched a loved one at UK Healthcare go through chemo and still struggle with nausea. Maybe you’ve seen a veteran at Camp Nelson VA grapple with PTSD and pills that just numb them out. Maybe you’ve had a neighbor lose a battle with cancer after being told there were no more options. Simpson’s story resonates because it’s about a regular person finding an alternative when institutional medicine said no.
The Traditional RSO Protocol (The 60-Gram Question)
Simpson’s protocol was straightforward in theory: consume 60 grams of high-THC cannabis oil over 90 days. Start with a dose the size of half a grain of rice, three times daily. Double it every four days. By week five, you’re taking 1 gram per day—about 600-900mg of delta-9 THC. That’s 300 times the typical FDA-approved dose of synthetic THC. Simpson claimed this could cure cancer, along with diabetes, chronic pain, glaucoma, arthritis, depression, and insomnia .
Here in Jessamine County, we need to be brutally honest about this protocol:
- No clinical trials have ever validated it .
- The THC exposure is extreme—far beyond any studied dose—and carries real risks: severe intoxication, anxiety, tachycardia, cannabis use disorder, and mental health complications [1][14][15].
- Traditional RSO was crude and unstandardized—every batch different, no lab testing, no way to know what you’re actually getting .
- Naphtha or isopropyl alcohol were used as solvents, leaving potential carcinogenic residues .
We respect what Simpson started. He gave his oil away for free. He taught people to make it themselves. He sparked a movement. But the protocol itself has serious limitations—especially for medically complex patients in places like Jessamine County where access to emergency care may be miles away.
Traditional RSO vs. What We Make for Jessamine County
The RSO you might hear about at a bourbon distillery workers’ gathering or in a Nicholasville cancer support group probably isn’t what Simpson actually made. The term has become generic. Here’s the real comparison:
| What Simpson Made | What OilWell Makes for Jessamine County |
|---|---|
| Single-strain, high-THC indica | Seven defined cannabinoids at precise ratios |
| Naphtha or isopropyl extraction | Solvent-free blend of pure distillates |
| No terpenes (destroyed by heat) | Live terpenes at 5% with seven defined compounds |
| No lab testing | Full panel testing—potency, pesticides, heavy metals, microbes |
| ~600-900mg delta-9 THC per day | Only 90mg delta-9 THC in entire 30mL bottle (3mg/mL) |
| Always psychoactive | Patient-controlled potency—raw THCa or activated THC |
For Jessamine County residents, this means:
- You’re not getting a mystery tar. You’re getting a standardized, lab-verified formula.
- You can use it non-psychoactively during the day while working your farm or driving into Lexington.
- You can activate it at home for full therapeutic potency when you need it—without breaking Kentucky law.
ABOUT OILWELL CANNABIS AND THE OILWELL RSO FORMULA
From the Borderlands to Bluegrass Country: Our Story
OilWell Cannabis was founded by Colin Valencia, who grew up in McAllen, Texas—one of the most dangerous border regions in America, where cartel violence and poverty shape daily life. By sixteen, Colin had lost friends to prison and death. He could have gone darker paths, but he chose cannabis—not as a drug, but as a plant with potential to heal.
After a head injury from a scaffolding fall (sound familiar?), Colin found that cannabis worked better than prescriptions. He became a software engineer, did custom development for Baylor College of Medicine, and combined that medical-grade precision with deep plant knowledge.
But the real turning point was Bentley—a dog Colin was told to euthanize because he was paralyzed. A rescue worker 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. Dogs don’t respond to placebo. Bentley lived ten more years, and Colin spent that decade developing multi-cannabinoid formulas for every condition Bentley faced: neurodegeneration, dementia, glaucoma, arthritis.
Why this matters in Jessamine County: We know you love your animals. Whether it’s a horse in Wilmore, a coonhound in Nicholasville, or a family dog in Keene, you understand that kind of bond. Bentley’s story is why we don’t sell hype—we sell formulas that saved a life we loved.
Colin’s Personal Battle: PTSD, Benzos, and the Birth of Peace
Colin also knows pharmaceutical dependence. He developed severe PTSD and became addicted to Xanax. When he quit cold turkey—a process that can be lethal—he used the same cannabinoid knowledge that saved Bentley. The Peace Gummies formula was born during midnight experiments while fighting through benzo withdrawal. He still uses the vape form personally for insomnia and PTSD.
For Jessamine County veterans and first responders: This isn’t corporate marketing. This is someone who has been where you are. The vape cartridge we offer? It’s the same format Colin uses when flashbacks hit at 2 AM. The peace he found is what we want to offer you.
What Makes OilWell RSO Different for Kentucky
Our RSO is built on four principles that directly address what Jessamine County needs:
-
Accessibility Over Gatekeeping
No medical card required. Kentucky’s medical program (SB 47) doesn’t launch until 2025, and even then, it’s restrictive. Our Farm Bill-compliant formula ships directly to your door in Jessamine County—Nicholasville, Wilmore, Keene, or anywhere else. Age 21+ only. -
Patient-Controlled Potency
We preserve THCa at 1,500mg in its raw, non-psychoactive form. You decide:- Daytime (non-psychoactive): Use raw THCa while working the fields or driving—zero impairment.
- Nighttime (full potency): Heat at 260°F for 45-60 minutes to convert THCa to ~1,315mg delta-9 THC, totaling ~1,405mg THC + 6,000mg delta-8 THC for therapeutic strength.
-
Open-Source Formulas
We publish every milligram. If $129.99 for our 30mL bottle is out of reach, you can source the distillates yourself. That’s the Simpson ethos—free medicine—adapted for modern Kentucky. -
Evidence-Informed, Not Hype-Driven
Every cannabinoid and terpene in our formula is backed by peer-reviewed research cited later in this guide. We don’t hide behind marketing fluff. We show you the science.
Farm Bill Compliance: Legal for Jessamine County
Kentucky law aligns with the 2018 Farm Bill: hemp-derived products with less than 0.3% delta-9 THC are legal. Our sublingual oil contains only 90mg delta-9 THC in the entire 30mL bottle—3mg/mL, well under the limit. The THCa is legally distinct until you heat it.
Your responsibility: THCa converts to THC when heated. Know your local laws. We provide COAs and full documentation. Jessamine County Sheriff’s Office and Nicholasville Police have discretion, but our product ships legally under federal law.

MEDIA RECOGNITION AND COMMUNITY IMPACT
Houston’s Cannabis Authority: Why It Matters for Kentucky
Between 2019-2023, ABC13 Houston—America’s 4th-largest TV market—featured Colin Valencia in seven news segments. Five different reporters sought him out. No other Houston operator matches that frequency.
Why should Jessamine County care? Because mainstream media doesn’t platform snake oil salesmen. ABC13 vetted Colin as the credible voice on:
- Delta-8 legality (2021) — When laws changed overnight, Colin warned other operators they were shipping Schedule I narcotics
- COVID vaccine giveaway (2021) — Donated $35,000 in product to encourage vaccination, coordinated with Houston city government
- Biden marijuana pardons (2022) — Colin revealed his personal cannabis conviction history, adding weight to every quote about therapy and justice
- Texas medical expansion (2023) — Positioned as industry leader as Kentucky considers its own program
The quote that defines us (September 2019):
“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.”
That’s the opposite of every cannabis company that overpromises. We give you the best possible version—of product, of information, of transparency—and let you decide.
GENERAL KNOWLEDGE: The Science for Jessamine County
How We Evaluate Evidence
We use a strict hierarchy: human clinical trials first, then systematic reviews, then NIH/institutional summaries, then preclinical research. Why? Because your health deserves the same standard as UK Healthcare or Baptist Health Lexington.
The Seven Cannabinoids in Your RSO
CBD (4,500mg)
- Strongest evidence for rare epilepsies, chemo nausea, and HIV appetite [1][2]
- Anxiety: 2024 meta-analysis shows significant anxiolytic signal but needs more trials [3]
- Pain: Promising but heterogeneous—helps some, not all [4]
- Safety: Can affect liver enzymes—important if you take other meds [6]
CBG (3,000mg)
- Precursor cannabinoid with unique pharmacology [7][8]
- Preclinical promise for neurologic disorders and IBD, but human evidence is thin [7]
- Sold commercially before clinical proof—we include it because the science is plausible, not proven [7]
Delta-8 THC (6,000mg)
- Partial CB1 agonist—psychoactive but less potent than delta-9 [9]
- Antiemetic evidence helps with chemo nausea [9]
- Safety concerns: Manufacturing quality varies; can cause failed drug tests [10][11]
- Not trivial—this is real THC, just different
THCa (1,500mg)
- Non-psychoactive precursor until heated [12]
- Anti-inflammatory via COX-2 inhibition—relevant for arthritis [12]
- Neuroprotective potential via PPARγ pathways [12]
- Your control: Keep it raw for daytime, decarb for nighttime
Delta-9 THC (90mg)
- Institutionally supported for chemo nausea, HIV appetite, MS spasticity [1][13]
- Pain: High-THC products help short-term but increase dizziness/sedation [13]
- Risks: High doses linked to psychosis, anxiety, cannabis use disorder [15]
- We keep it low (3mg/mL) to minimize risk while preserving therapeutic effect
CBN (750mg)
- Marketed for sleep but evidence is weak [16][17]
- No validated human trials for sleep promotion [16]
- We include it because emerging research suggests potential at 20-50mg doses [16], but we’re honest about the gaps
CBC (750mg)
- Distinct pharmacology from CBD/THC [18][19]
- Preclinical signals for pain and neuroprotection [18][19]
- Commercially sold before clinical proof—we acknowledge the immaturity of the evidence [18]
The Seven Terpenes: Beyond Aroma
Terpenes are not just smell—they’re bioactive compounds. But claims must be conservative:
Limonene (citrus-bright)
- Antioxidant, anti-inflammatory in preclinical studies [21]
- Safety: Oxidized limonene can be allergenic [22]
Myrcene
- Anxiolytic and analgesic in animal models [23]
- Human evidence: Lacking—sedation claims are overstated [20][23]
Caryophyllene (pepper/spice)
- CB2 receptor agonist—directly interacts with your endocannabinoid system [24]
- Most compelling terpene mechanism, but still preclinical [24]
Pinene (forest-fresh)
- Neuroprotective signals in rodent studies [25]
- Memory claims: Not proven in humans [25]
Linalool (lavender)
- Stress and mood preclinical data [26]
- Allergen warning: Oxidized linalool causes contact dermatitis [22]
Humulene (earthy, woody)
- Anti-inflammatory in rodent models [27]
- Early stage: Cannabimimetic properties hypothesized [27]
Terpinolene (piney, fruity)
- Least clinically studied of our profile [28]
- Bottom line: Interesting but speculative [20][28]
Research Limits: What We Don’t Know
- Evidence is uneven—CBD/THC have human data; others don’t [1]-[29]
- Extract ≠ molecule ≠ synthetic—don’t let one category stand for another
- Minor cannabinoids are interesting because they’re underexplored—not because they’re proven
- Product quality matters—contamination, mislabeling, and synthesis byproducts affect real outcomes [1][10][11][14]
- THCa changes with heat and time—your storage method alters the product [12]
Common Overstatements (And the Truth)
| Overstatement You’ve Heard | What’s Actually True |
|---|---|
| “CBN is a proven sleep aid” | No validated human trials—evidence is weak [16][17] |
| “Myrcene makes you sleepy” | Preclinical only—human proof is lacking [23] |
| “Terpenes have proven entourage effects” | Hypothesis is plausible but clinical proof is limited [20][29] |
| “THCa is always non-psychoactive” | True until heated—then it becomes THC [12] |
| “Delta-8 is safe because it’s hemp-derived” | Psychoactive and less studied than delta-9 [9]-[11] |
