Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) in Long County, Georgia: The Complete Guide by OilWell Cannabis
Living out here in Long County, we know what it means to take care of our own. Between the long drives to Savannah for specialist appointments, the quiet evenings on porches in Ludowici, and the unique challenges our military families face at Fort Stewart, we understand that real healthcare solutions need to meet real people where they actually live—not where the nearest big-city hospital happens to be.
That’s why we’re reaching out to our neighbors across Long County with something different: honest education about Rick Simpson Oil, grounded in the same scientific standards we’d expect for any serious health conversation. We’re OilWell Cannabis, a Houston-based cannabinoid company founded on a simple principle that resonates deeply with Long County values—we’re not here to sell snake oil or false hope. We’re here to give you the best possible information so you can decide what’s right for you.
Understanding Rick Simpson Oil: What Long County Needs to Know
Who Was Rick Simpson?
Rick Simpson wasn’t a doctor or scientist—he was a blue-collar power engineer from Nova Scotia who got hurt on the job in 1997 and found himself let down by the medical system. After a scaffolding fall left him with persistent tinnitus and post-concussion symptoms, the medications his doctors prescribed either didn’t help or made things worse. When he discovered cannabis provided relief, his own physician refused to discuss it as an option.
That experience—one that too many folks in Long County who’ve dealt with chronic pain or military injuries can relate to—set him on a path that would change the cannabis world forever.
In 2003, Simpson claimed that applying concentrated cannabis oil to three bumps on his arm (which his doctor had diagnosed as basal cell carcinoma) made them disappear in four days. No biopsy, no medical verification, no clinical documentation—but this personal story became the foundation of “Rick Simpson Oil.”
Here’s what matters for Long County: Simpson’s story is historically significant, not medically verified. It’s the catalyst that sparked a global movement, but it’s personal testimony, not clinical proof. We respect his contribution while holding ourselves to the evidence standards our Long County neighbors deserve.
The Traditional RSO Protocol (And Why It’s Problematic)
Simpson’s famous 60-gram protocol is widely discussed in online cancer support groups that many Long County families turn to when conventional treatments fall short. Understanding it is important—but so is understanding its limitations.
The Protocol:
- 60 grams of oil over ~90 days
- 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 in three divided doses
- Administration: Primarily oral (sublingual), sometimes topical for skin issues
The Critical Problems Long County Should Know:
-
No Clinical Validation: Not a single randomized controlled trial has tested this protocol for any condition. Zero. The doses are based on one man’s personal experience, not pharmacological science.
-
Extremely High THC Exposure: At peak dosing, this delivers 600-900mg of delta-9 THC daily. Compare that to the FDA-approved drug dronabinol, which uses 2.5-20mg daily. This is 30-360 times higher than studied doses.
-
Real Risks: At those levels, patients face severe intoxication, anxiety, panic attacks, tachycardia, cannabis use disorder, and dangerous impairment. For our neighbors in Long County who need to drive 20 miles to work or care for children, these side effects aren’t minor inconveniences—they’re deal-breakers.
-
Crude Production: Traditional RSO used toxic solvents like naphtha (lighter fluid) or isopropyl alcohol. Even with careful processing, residual solvent contamination is a genuine health risk—especially concerning for our neighbors dealing with compromised immune systems.
-
No Standardization: Every batch was different. No lab testing, no cannabinoid quantification, no terpene preservation. You’d never accept that kind of variability from your pharmacist in Hinesville; why accept it from a cannabis product?
The Bottom Line for Long County: While Simpson’s heart was in the right place, his protocol was never scientifically validated and carries real dangers. Modern formulation solves these problems—but only if you know what to look for.
The OilWell Story: From a Paralyzed Dog to Long County Precision
Our company didn’t start in a boardroom. It started with Bentley, a dog who couldn’t walk.
Bentley’s Second Chance
Bentley was more than a pet—he was family. When veterinarians told Colin Valencia his beloved companion was paralyzed and needed to be euthanized, the pain felt familiar to anyone in Long County who’s heard “there’s nothing more we can do.” The meds would destroy Bentley’s organs. Quality of life was gone.
But giving up wasn’t an option. A rescue worker named Jessica asked Colin a question that changed everything: “You’ve moved how many tons of weed and you’ve never heard of CBD?”
Colin knew cannabis recreationally. He’d grown up in McAllen, Texas—right on the border, in one of the most dangerous, economically challenged regions imaginable. He’d seen friends killed and imprisoned. By sixteen, he’d left home for good, learning the plant intimately while navigating a world where survival meant hustle.
But therapeutic cannabis? That was new territory.
Colin created a CBD golden paste for Bentley—a blend of organic turmeric, coconut oil, black pepper, and CBD oil. The results weren’t gradual. They were immediate and undeniable. Bentley got up. Walked over. Brought Colin his ball to play. From paralyzed to playing fetch. Dogs don’t respond to placebo. This was real cannabinoid medicine doing what pharmaceuticals never could.
Bentley lived ten more years, dying naturally at age twenty. During those years, Colin developed specialized formulas for every age-related condition Bentley faced:
- Neurodegeneration → CBG for neuroprotection, THCa for PPARγ brain cell support
- Dementia → CBC for neurogenesis
- Glaucoma → THC for CB1-mediated intraocular pressure
- Crippling arthritis → Multi-pathway anti-inflammatories: CBD, CBG, THCa, and beta-caryophyllene working simultaneously
Single cannabinoids weren’t enough. Bentley’s evolving conditions required seven cannabinoids working together—the same principle that defines our RSO formula today.
From the Border to the Texas Medical Center
Colin’s journey from McAllen to founding OilWell Cannabis gave him something unique: deep cannabis plant knowledge combined with medical-grade technical precision from his software engineering work at Baylor College of Medicine—one of the most prestigious institutions in the Texas Medical Center.
But the real education came from personal suffering. Colin struggled with PTSD and benzodiazepine addiction—experiences all too familiar to veterans returning to Long County from Fort Stewart deployments. When he quit Xanax cold turkey using the cannabinoid knowledge he’d developed for Bentley, he created what became our Peace Gummies—a formula born from midnight experiments during withdrawal hell.
Colin personally uses the vape form of this same formula to manage his insomnia and severe PTSD. This isn’t theoretical knowledge from a textbook. It’s survival experience turned into science.
Why Long County Can Trust Our Media Record
Between 2019 and 2023, ABC13 Houston featured Colin and OilWell Cannabis in seven major news segments. Five different reporters sought him out across topics spanning law, medicine, business, and community health. No other Houston cannabis operator has that breadth or frequency of mainstream media validation.
The coverage that matters for Long County:
-
September 2019: Colin’s foundational quote—“I’m not trying to sell people snake oil… there’s enough research that people just need to know and try and have the best possible version…”—established the honest-education philosophy that defines everything we do.
-
May 2021: When Steve Campion asked why someone would want Delta-8, Colin’s unfiltered response—“Maybe you want to get high”—demonstrated the radical honesty that builds trust. No corporate speak. Just truth.
-
August 2021: During the COVID crisis, OilWell gave away $35,000 in product (1,000 caviar pre-rolls) to encourage vaccination, coordinating with the City of Houston. That’s community commitment, not marketing.
-
October 2021: When Texas suddenly classified Delta-8 as Schedule I, Colin proactively removed all products before enforcement began and warned other operators who were unknowingly shipping narcotics. Ethical leadership in a crisis.
-
October 2022: The feature revealed Colin’s personal marijuana conviction history—showing Long County readers that our founder has lived the consequences of prohibition and built a legal alternative with integrity.
This isn’t paid advertising. It’s earned credibility from America’s fourth-largest media market—the kind of third-party validation that matters when you’re making health decisions for yourself or your family.
The OilWell RSO Formula: Built for Long County’s Needs
Our RSO isn’t traditional Rick Simpson Oil. It’s modern, multi-cannabinoid formulation that solves the problems Simpson’s crude method couldn’t.
Four Core Principles That Matter Here
-
Accessibility Over Gatekeeping
- No medical card required—just age 21+
- We ship directly to Long County addresses
- Same-day delivery available in Houston for those visiting the city
- Free delivery to the Texas Medical Center (world’s largest medical complex) for patients making the drive from Long County for specialist care
-
Patient-Controlled Potency
- Contains 1,500mg of THCa in its raw, non-psychoactive form
- Use it raw (no heat) for daytime anti-inflammatory benefits with zero impairment—perfect for Long County folks who need to drive to work at Fort Stewart or manage daily responsibilities
- Decarboxylate at home (260°F for 45-60 minutes) to convert to ~1,315mg delta-9 THC + 90mg existing delta-9 = 1,405mg total THC—full psychoactive potency comparable to traditional illegal RSO
- The choice is yours, not the product’s
-
Open-Source Formulas
- We publish every milligram, every percentage publicly
- If $129.99 for our sublingual oil or $49.99 for our vape cartridge doesn’t fit your budget, you can source the ingredients and make your own version
- This isn’t marketing—it’s our ethos. We started by publishing Bentley’s CBD golden paste recipe for free. We continue that tradition because every Long County resident deserves access, not just those who can afford premium products
-
Evidence-Informed, Never Overstated
- Every cannabinoid and terpene in our formula has its evidence profile documented in peer-reviewed research
- We distinguish between what’s proven (CBD for seizures), what’s promising (CBG for neuroprotection), and what’s overstated (CBN as a proven sleep aid)
- You get the same honest science we’d want our own families in Long County to have

Terpene Profile: The Entourage Effect Explained
Our seven-terpene blend isn’t just for flavor—it’s based on emerging research about cannabinoid-terpene synergy:
- Limonene (citrus-bright): Mood elevation, anxiety modulation
- Myrcene: Sedation hypothesis (preclinical only—important caveat for Long County readers)
- Caryophyllene (pepper/spice): Direct CB2 agonist—unique among terpenes for cannabinoid receptor activity
- Pinene (forest-fresh): Memory/clarity hypothesis (preclinical)
- Linalool (lavender): Calming, anxiolytic potential
- Humulene (earthy/woody): Anti-inflammatory interest
- Terpinolene (piney/fruity): Complex, sparkling aroma
Critical honesty: The evidence for clinically meaningful entourage effects in humans is still limited. We include terpenes because the preclinical science is plausible and growing, not because it’s proven. That’s the difference between marketing hype and honest education.

Condition-Specific Guidance for Long County
Important: These are educational contexts based on research, not prescriptions. Always consult your healthcare provider. Our products are not FDA-approved to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
For Our Veterans & Military Families at Fort Stewart
PTSD & Hypervigilance:
- Day: 0.3mL raw sublingual morning and afternoon (CBD/CBG for anxiety without impairment)
- Night: 1.0mL decarbed sublingual before bed (full profile + CBN)
- Acute trigger: 2-3 vape puffs as needed
- Why: Delta-8’s antiemetic properties [9] help with nausea from anxiety; CBD anxiety evidence [3]; CBN for sleep disruption [16][17]
Colin personally uses the vape for his severe PTSD. He lived through benzo withdrawal using these exact formulas. For Long County veterans tired of pills that don’t work or carry addiction risk, this represents a research-informed alternative—but one that requires honest conversation with your VA healthcare team about potential interactions.
For Chronic Pain (Fibromyalgia, Arthritis, Neuropathy)
Daily Management:
- Morning: 0.5mL raw sublingual with coffee
- Evening: 0.5-1.0mL decarbed sublingual
- Breakthrough: Vape as needed
Evidence Context:
- CBD pain literature is promising but heterogeneous [4]
- Delta-9 THC shows short-term pain benefit but increases dizziness/sedation [13]
- Beta-caryophyllene’s CB2 agonism [24] may help inflammatory pain
- THCa’s COX-2 inhibition [12] offers non-psychoactive anti-inflammatory option
Local Note: Many Long County residents work physical jobs—farming, construction, military. The raw sublingual option allows daytime function without impairment while still delivering anti-inflammatory cannabinoids.
For Cancer Supportive Care
During Chemotherapy:
- Pre-treatment: 0.5-1.0mL sublingual 1 hour before (delta-8 antiemetic [9])
- Acute nausea: 2-3 vape puffs (1-2 minute onset)
- Post-treatment: 0.5mL every 6 hours as needed
- Sleep: 1.0-2.0mL at night (25-50mg CBN)
Critical Reminder: RSO is NOT a cancer cure. It is supportive care. The National Cancer Institute acknowledges cannabinoid anticancer research exists but does NOT endorse cannabis as cancer treatment . Do not delay proven oncology care. Our Long County neighbors facing cancer deserve both honesty and hope—the latter grounded in real science, not false promises.
For Sleep Disorders
Before Bed:
- Standard: 1.0mL sublingual = 25mg CBN
- Severe: 2.0mL = 50mg CBN (dosage level investigated in 2024 sleep literature)
Reality Check: CBN’s sleep reputation is stronger than its clinical evidence. A 2021 review found NO clinical trials using validated sleep questionnaires or polysomnography [16]. The 2024 cannabis sleep review confirms the need for better trials [17]. We include CBN because it’s part of the traditional RSO conversation and has mechanistic plausibility, but we’re honest about the evidence gaps.
Legal Framework: What Long County Needs to Know
Farm Bill Compliance
Our RSO is 100% legal under the 2018 Farm Bill because:
- Contains <0.3% delta-9 THC by dry weight (only 90mg total delta-9 THC in entire 30mL bottle)
- All cannabinoids are hemp-derived
- Legal to purchase, possess, and ship to Long County addresses
THCa Distinction: At purchase, your product contains non-psychoactive THCa (1,500mg). Only YOU control whether it stays that way. This is the legal innovation that makes our product possible.
Long County & Georgia Law
Georgia’s hemp program aligns with federal Farm Bill standards. Our products are legal to ship to and possess in Long County. However, you are responsible for understanding local ordinances. We provide full Certificates of Analysis with every order for your records.
Drug Testing Reality
Be absolutely clear:
- Raw THCa sublingual oil: Will NOT trigger standard drug tests (tests screen for delta-9 THC metabolites)
- Decarbed/activated oil: Will trigger drug tests (converts to delta-9 THC)
- Vape cartridge: Will trigger drug tests (auto-decarbs when heated)
For our Fort Stewart service members and civilian workers: If your job requires testing, use the raw sublingual form only. Do not decarboxylate or vape if you cannot risk a positive result.

- 1/2 cup organic turmeric powder
- 1 cup water
- 1/3 cup unrefined organic coconut oil
- 1-2 tsp freshly ground black pepper (for absorption)

Mix turmeric and water over low heat until paste forms (7-10 minutes). Add coconut oil and pepper. Cool, store refrigerated up to 2 weeks. Mix with food.
This is the exact recipe that saved Bentley. We published it years before our RSO formulas because saving companions matters more than profit.
