Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) in Screven County, Georgia: The Complete Guide by OilWell Cannabis
Understanding Rick Simpson Oil: From Nova Scotia to Screven County
Who Was Rick Simpson?
Rick Simpson wasn’t a doctor, scientist, or medical researcher. He was a power engineer from Amherst, Nova Scotia — a blue-collar tradesman who, like many folks here in Screven County, believed in practical solutions and had a deep skepticism of systems that fail ordinary people. In 1997, while working at a hospital in Moncton, Simpson fell from scaffolding and suffered a traumatic head injury that left him with persistent tinnitus, dizziness, and post-concussion symptoms that his doctors couldn’t fix. The medications they prescribed either didn’t help or made things worse. When he discovered cannabis provided more relief than anything his physicians offered, he asked his doctor to consider it as an option. The doctor refused.
That refusal — that moment when the medical system said “no” to something that was actually helping — resonates across Screven County. We’ve seen it here too. Maybe it’s the veteran in Sylvania told there’s nothing more that can be done for his PTSD. Maybe it’s the farmer outside Oliver who’s been through every pain pill the doctor can prescribe and still can’t work his land. Maybe it’s the cancer patient in Millen who hears “euthanasia is the only humane option” for a beloved family member, animal or human. That experience of being abandoned by conventional medicine is universal, and it’s why Rick Simpson’s story matters to us here in Screven County.
The 2003 Skin Cancer Story
Simpson’s pivotal moment came in 2003 when he noticed three bumps on his arm that his doctor diagnosed as basal cell carcinoma. Rather than pursuing conventional treatment, Simpson applied concentrated cannabis oil directly to the lesions, covered them with bandages, and waited. According to his account, the bumps disappeared within four days. No biopsy confirmation was ever published. No independent medical verification exists. No peer-reviewed documentation supports this outcome. But that personal experience became the origin story of Rick Simpson Oil, and it sparked a global movement that eventually reached places like Screven County, Georgia.
We present this story exactly as Simpson told it because it’s historically significant — it’s the reason anyone in Screven County searching online for “cannabis oil cancer” or “RSO near me” even knows these terms exist. But we also present it with the critical context that this was one man’s personal testimony, not clinical evidence. That’s the difference between education and hype, and it’s a standard we hold ourselves to because folks in Screven County deserve honesty, not false hope.
The Traditional RSO Protocol: What Simpson Actually Recommended
Simpson’s core treatment recommendation was specific: consume 60 grams of concentrated cannabis oil over approximately 90 days. He prescribed a detailed titration schedule that started with a dose the size of half a grain of rice — about 10-15 milligrams — taken three times daily. Every four days, you doubled the dose. By week five, you were consuming roughly 1 gram (1,000 milligrams) of oil per day, divided into three doses. You maintained that dose until you’d consumed the full 60 grams.
He recommended sublingual or oral administration as the primary method, topical application for skin conditions, and acknowledged inhalation only for immediate symptom relief, not as a primary treatment. He claimed patients would develop tolerance to psychoactive effects within 3-4 weeks and advised nighttime dosing initially to sleep through the strongest effects.
Why This Protocol Raises Red Flags for Screven County
Here’s where we need to be completely straight with our neighbors in Screven County. Simpson’s protocol was designed around crude, unstandardized material with no lab testing. At peak dosing, patients were consuming roughly 600-900 milligrams of delta-9 THC daily. For context, the FDA-approved synthetic THC drug dronabinol is typically dosed at 2.5 to 20 milligrams per day. We’re talking about doses 30 to 400 times higher than what’s been studied in controlled clinical settings.
The risks at those doses are real: severe intoxication, impairment, anxiety, panic, tachycardia, hypotension, and cannabis use disorder. These aren’t theoretical concerns — they’re documented in the medical literature [15]. For cancer patients in Screven County who are already medically complex, using unregulated, unstandardized oil as a primary treatment could cause harm that extends far beyond the oil itself.
There’s another issue: Simpson used naphtha or 99% isopropyl alcohol as solvents. Naphtha is a petroleum-based solvent that may contain benzene, toluene, and other carcinogenic compounds. Isopropyl alcohol isn’t food-grade. Without lab testing to verify complete solvent removal — which Simpson couldn’t do — patients risked consuming toxic residues. In Screven County, where many folks still remember the days of making do with what you had, this matters. We understand the DIY spirit, but we also understand that safety can’t be an afterthought.

The OilWell Story: From McAllen to Montrose to Screven County
Our Founder: Colin Valencia
OilWell Cannabis was founded by Colin Valencia, and his story matters because it’s the foundation of everything we do. Colin grew up in McAllen, Texas — right across the river from Reynosa, Mexico. The McAllen-Reynosa area, known as the Borderplex, is one of the most economically challenged and dangerous regions along the entire U.S.-Mexico border. It’s a place where poverty runs deep, cartel violence is a daily reality, and opportunities are scarce outside of retail and healthcare. Reynosa is an industrial hub plagued by violence that makes it a harsh environment for anyone growing up there.
Colin’s childhood was marked by exposure to every form of violence imaginable, both in the streets and across the border. He learned early on to hustle, taking on risky work transporting items across the border for various groups. By sixteen, he had to leave home for good. Many of his best friends have been killed or are in prison because of the dangers associated with that life.
Despite all this, Colin didn’t fall into the darkest paths available — like selling harder substances. Instead, he focused on cannabis, seeing it as a safer and more beneficial alternative. He grew up in the traditional cannabis world long before legalization, learning the plant intimately while operating in the shadows. Over time, he transitioned from those early, risky ventures to creating a legal, legitimate business in an industry he believes in.
Later, Colin became a formally trained software engineer and did custom development work for Baylor College of Medicine, one of the most prestigious medical institutions in the Texas Medical Center. That combination — deep cannabis plant knowledge plus medical-grade technical precision — defines OilWell’s approach today.
Bentley: The Dog Who Started It All
Our company’s origin story begins with a dog named Bentley. Bentley was more than just a pet — he was family, a companion who stood by Colin through the toughest times. When Bentley fell seriously ill, veterinarians delivered the verdict no pet owner wants to hear: euthanasia was the only humane option. Bentley was paralyzed in his back legs. They said the pain medications would destroy his internal organs, causing him more pain and suffering. The choice was painful prolonged decline or immediate mercy killing.
But giving up on Bentley was not an option. In a desperate search for alternatives, Colin stumbled upon CBD through a question that changed everything. A kind-hearted rescue worker named Jessica asked: “You’ve moved how many tons of weed and you’ve never heard of CBD?”
Colin had cannabis experience — but it was recreational. He’d never explored the therapeutic applications. Jessica’s question exposed a blind spot that became a mission.
Determined to save Bentley, Colin created CBD golden paste — a specialized cannabinoid formula for pets. It wasn’t a cure, but it was hope. And that hope delivered something veterinary medicine said was impossible: Bentley got up. He walked over to Colin and brought him his ball to play. From paralyzed and facing euthanasia to fetching his ball. This was not placebo effect — dogs don’t respond to placebo. This was cannabinoid medicine doing what pharmaceuticals could not.
Bentley lived another ten years, passing naturally at age twenty. During those years, Colin developed specialized formulas for every age-related condition Bentley faced. Neurodegeneration led him to CBG’s neuroprotective properties and THCa’s PPARγ agonism for brain cell protection. Dementia led him to CBC’s role in neurogenesis. Glaucoma led him to THC’s CB1 agonism for intraocular pressure reduction. Crippling arthritis led him to develop multi-pathway anti-inflammatory approaches using CBD, CBG, THCa, and beta-caryophyllene working through different receptor systems simultaneously.
Single cannabinoids were not enough. Bentley’s evolving conditions required multi-cannabinoid synergy. This is why OilWell’s RSO contains seven cannabinoids instead of one or two. It wasn’t a marketing decision — it was born from necessity. When you’re trying to keep your best friend alive, you learn quickly that precision matters more than marketing claims.
Colin’s Personal Struggle: PTSD and Benzo Addiction
Colin also knows pharmaceutical dependence personally. He struggled with PTSD and benzodiazepine addiction. When he decided to break free from Xanax, he did it cold turkey — a feat that’s notoriously difficult and dangerous — using the cannabinoid knowledge he developed keeping Bentley alive. The Peace Gummies formula that became an OilWell product was created during midnight experiments while fighting through benzo withdrawal. Colin personally uses the vape form to manage his insomnia and severe PTSD on an ongoing basis.
This isn’t theoretical knowledge from a textbook. This is lived experience. When we talk to veterans in Screven County about using cannabinoids for PTSD, we’re not reading from a script. We’re speaking from experience. When we discuss using RSO to taper off benzodiazepines, it’s because we’ve been there.
Why This Matters for Screven County
Screven County is a rural community where people work hard and value self-reliance. We understand that many folks here have served in the military. We know the opioid crisis has touched families here just like everywhere else. We recognize that when you’re dealing with chronic pain, PTSD, or cancer, you don’t have time for marketing fluff — you need real solutions based on real experience.
Colin’s background — growing up in one of the most challenging border regions, transitioning from the traditional cannabis world to legal business, building medical-grade technical precision, and developing formulas through necessity rather than theory — gives OilWell a foundation of authenticity that corporate cannabis brands can’t replicate. When we say we understand what you’re going through, we mean it.
Our Philosophy: Four Pillars That Serve Screven County
1. Accessibility Over Gatekeeping
No medical card is required. Anyone age twenty-one or older can purchase OilWell RSO. We ship directly to Screven County, delivering to addresses from Sylvania to Millen, from Oliver to Dover, and every rural route in between. You don’t need to drive to Atlanta or Savannah. You don’t need a qualifying condition. You don’t need a doctor’s permission.
This matters in Screven County, where the nearest medical cannabis dispensary might be hours away. Where taking a day off work to see a specialist isn’t realistic for many folks. Where the TCUP program’s restrictions — requiring cancer, PTSD with specific criteria, or other limited qualifying conditions — lock out people who could benefit from cannabinoid support.
Simpson believed medicine should be accessible to everyone. We built a product and distribution model that makes that accessible legally. Whether you’re in Sylvania’s town center or on a farm outside Dover, we can get our products to you.
2. Patient-Controlled Potency
Traditional RSO was always fully psychoactive. You had no choice. You took it, you got high, you dealt with the impairment.
OilWell’s sublingual formula contains 1,500 milligrams of THCa in its acidic, non-psychoactive form. This creates three distinct usage options for folks in Screven County:
Option 1 — Raw, no heat: All 1,500 milligrams stays as THCa — completely non-psychoactive. This gives you anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective benefits without any high. Perfect for daytime use when you need to work, drive, or stay clear-headed. For our farmers in Screven County who need to operate equipment, for our healthcare workers in Sylvania who need to stay sharp, for anyone who can’t afford impairment — this is your option.
Option 2 — Fully activated, home decarboxylation: Heating the oil at 260°F (125°C) for 45 to 60 minutes converts 1,500 milligrams of THCa into approximately 1,315 milligrams of delta-9 THC. Combined with the existing 90 milligrams of delta-9 THC, this yields approximately 1,405 milligrams of total delta-9 THC. This delivers psychoactive potency comparable to traditional illegal RSO, entirely at your discretion after purchase. You can decarb the whole bottle or just a portion — pour what you intend to use into a separate oven-safe glass container, heat it, and preserve the rest in its raw form.
Option 3 — Vape, auto-decarboxylation: The RSO Vape Cartridge vaporizes at 400 to 450°F, instantly converting THCa to delta-9 THC with each puff. This is the fastest-onset RSO delivery method available — perfect for breakthrough pain, panic attacks, or nausea that hits suddenly.
The conversion chemistry is simple: THCa has a molecular weight of 358.47 g/mol. The conversion ratio is approximately 1 milligram THCa = 0.877 milligrams delta-9 THC after decarboxylation.
This design puts the potency decision entirely in your hands — aligning with Rick Simpson’s principle that patients should control their own medicine, but implementing that principle through actual chemistry rather than rhetoric.
3. Open-Source Formulas
We publish our complete formulas publicly — every cannabinoid, every milligram amount, every percentage. Why? Because if someone in Screven County can’t afford our products, they deserve to know exactly what’s in them so they can make their own version.
Traditional RSO was open-source in spirit — Simpson gave his oil away for free and taught people how to make it. He never patented his method. He never charged patients. We’ve adapted that ethos for the modern cannabinoid marketplace: we sell a professionally manufactured, lab-tested, standardized product for those who want it, and we publish the complete recipe for those who want to make it themselves.
Here’s our sublingual formula in full:
OilWell RSO Sublingual Oil Formula:
- CBD: 4,500mg
- CBG: 3,000mg
- Delta-8 THC: 6,000mg
- THCa: 1,500mg
- Delta-9 THC: 90mg
- CBN: 750mg
- CBC: 750mg
- Total: 16,590mg in 30mL (553mg/mL)
- Live Terpenes: 5% (limonene, myrcene, caryophyllene, pinene, linalool, humulene, terpinolene)
- Base: Organic MCT oil
If you can source these ingredients and mix them yourself, you have our blessing. We want you to have options. That said, most folks in Screven County tell us they’d rather buy the professionally manufactured version — knowing it’s been tested for pesticides, heavy metals, residual solvents, and microbial contaminants, and that every batch comes with a Certificate of Analysis.
4. Evidence-Informed, Not Evidence-Overstating
When we say “evidence-informed,” we mean it. The GENERAL KNOWLEDGE section of this document represents our commitment to honest education about what the science actually says. Simpson operated without access to peer-reviewed literature or clinical trial data. We have that access, and we use it to distinguish between what is well-supported, what is emerging, and what is overstated.
For every cannabinoid in our formula, we’ve reviewed the human clinical evidence, systematic reviews, and institutional summaries. We don’t cherry-pick studies that support our position. We present the full picture — including what we don’t know yet.
This matters in Screven County because folks here are smart enough to see through hype. You want the facts. You want to know what works, what might work, and what’s marketing fluff. That’s what we give you.
The Science: What Each Cannabinoid Actually Does
Let’s walk through each compound in our formula, what the evidence shows, and what that means for someone in Screven County dealing with specific health challenges.
CBD (4,500mg): The Foundation
CBD has the strongest human evidence in our formula. The NIH’s National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health identifies its strongest established evidence for certain rare epilepsies — which is why the FDA approved Epidiolex, a purified CBD product, for seizure disorders [1][2].
For Screven County residents, the pain research is relevant: a 2024 systematic review found that CBD monotherapy shows promise for chronic pain, though the literature is still developing [4]. The anxiety research is also notable: a 2024 meta-analysis covering 316 participants found statistically significant anxiolytic effects, though researchers stress that more trials are needed [3].
Safety matters: CBD can affect liver enzymes and interact with other medications, especially at higher doses [6]. If you’re in Screven County and taking prescription medications, this is why we recommend consulting with your healthcare provider before starting — CBD’s drug-drug interactions are real.
CBG (3,000mg): The Neuroprotector
CBG is the “mother cannabinoid” — it’s the biosynthetic precursor to THC and CBD. The research shows it interacts with cannabinoid receptors, alpha-2 adrenoceptors, and 5-HT1A-related signaling [7]. This makes it mechanistically interesting for neurologic disorders, inflammatory bowel disease, and antibacterial activity.
But here’s the honest truth: most of this evidence is preclinical. Human studies are sparse. The 2021 pharmacology review explicitly notes that CBG is already being sold commercially while the evidence base remains thin [7]. We’re including it because the preclinical research is compelling and aligns with what we observed in Bentley’s neurodegeneration, but we’re not going to tell you it’s proven — because it isn’t yet [7][8].
Delta-8 THC (6,000mg): The Functional Psychoactive
Delta-8 THC is psychoactive, but less potent than delta-9 THC. A 2022 review found that delta-8 and delta-9 have broadly similar pharmacokinetic behavior, but delta-8’s weaker CB1 affinity makes it less intoxicating [9].
For Screven County residents dealing with chronic pain, this matters: delta-8 provides THC’s analgesic benefits with potentially less cognitive impairment. But we need to be straight about the safety profile: a 2023 scoping review noted reports of adverse consequences and emphasized that manufacturing quality is a major concern [10]. Many delta-8 products on the market have synthesis byproducts and inconsistent labeling — which is why our third-party testing is so important [11].
THCa (1,500mg): The Game-Changer for Screven County
This is where our product fundamentally differs from traditional RSO. THCa is the acidic precursor to THC. In its raw form, it doesn’t produce psychoactive effects [12]. But it does show potential anti-inflammatory activity via COX-2 inhibition and neuroprotective potential via PPARγ agonism [12].
For our farmers in Screven County who need daytime relief without impairment, for our nurses and teachers who can’t be high at work, for anyone who needs functional relief — THCa in its raw form is revolutionary. And because you control the decarboxylation, you decide when it becomes psychoactive. That’s not a loophole; that’s chemistry.
Delta-9 THC (90mg): The Minimal Dose
Traditional RSO delivered 600-900mg of delta-9 THC daily. Our entire bottle contains just 90mg — 3mg per mL. We include this small amount because the entourage literature suggests even trace amounts may influence the overall effect [20][29]. But we deliberately keep it low to minimize the psychoactive and psychiatric risks that come with high-dose THC [13][15].
For Screven County residents concerned about drug testing, this matters: even in its raw form, our product contains minimal delta-9 THC. However, if you decarboxylate the THCa, you will create enough delta-9 THC to potentially trigger a positive test. We don’t hide this — we explain it because you deserve to make informed decisions.
CBN (750mg): The Sleep Question
CBN is marketed everywhere as a sleep aid, but the evidence is weak. A 2021 review screened 99 human-study abstracts and found no clinical trials using validated sleep questionnaires or polysomnography that could substantiate strong sleep-promoting claims [16]. A 2024 updated review concluded that overall cannabinoid sleep research still doesn’t match the scale of real-world use [17].
We’re including CBN at 750mg because some animal research suggests potential, and because many of our customers report benefit. But we’re not going to claim it’s proven for sleep — because it isn’t [16][17].
CBC (750mg): The Emerging Cannabinoid
CBC is one of the least studied cannabinoids in our formula, but emerging research suggests it has distinct pharmacodynamics and potential relevance for antinociceptive, antibacterial, and anti-seizure applications [18]. The 2024 review explicitly notes that over-the-counter CBC products are being sold despite little evidence establishing clinical efficacy or safety [18].
We’re transparent about this: CBC is included based on promising preclinical work and its role in Bentley’s neurodegeneration management, but it belongs in the “scientifically credible but clinically immature” category [18][19].
The Terpene Story: More Than Just Smell
Our RSO includes live terpenes at 5% with a specific seven-terpene profile: limonene, myrcene, caryophyllene, pinene, linalool, humulene, and terpinolene. Here’s what the evidence actually shows:
Limonene: The Citrus Brightener
Found in citrus peels, limonene has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties in preclinical studies [21]. But most evidence comes from non-cannabis sources. There’s also a safety consideration: oxidized limonene can be a contact allergen [22]. We include it for its potential mood-brightening effects and because it complements our formula’s uplifting qualities, but we don’t overstate the science.
Myrcene: The Relaxation Terpene
Common in mangoes and hops, myrcene is often claimed to be sedating. The 2021 review found anxiolytic and anti-inflammatory properties in preclinical models, but explicitly stated human studies are lacking [23]. For Screven County residents looking for relaxation, it’s a promising compound, but not a proven sedative.
Caryophyllene: The CB2 Activator
This is the most interesting terpene in our profile. A 2021 review described beta-caryophyllene as a selective CB2 receptor agonist — meaning it directly interacts with the cannabinoid system [24]. This makes it especially relevant when discussing cannabis terpenes pharmacologically rather than just aromatically. It may contribute anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects, but human clinical confirmation remains limited [24].
Pinene: The Memory Terpene
Found in pine forests (like the ones surrounding Screven County), pinene has shown antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects in preclinical studies [25]. Claims that it improves memory or counters THC’s cognitive effects are interesting hypotheses, not settled facts [20][25].
Linalool: The Calm Terpene
Present in lavender, linalool is associated with stress and mood effects [26]. As with other terpenes, most evidence is preclinical [25]. It’s a plausible contributor to calming effects, but not clinically proven for anxiety or sleep.
Humulene: The Anti-Inflammatory Terpene
A 2024 scoping review found broad preclinical evidence for anti-inflammatory effects, with some rodent work suggesting cannabimimetic properties [27]. It’s translationally interesting but far from clinically settled.
Terpinolene: The Complexity Terpene
This is one of the least studied terpenes in our profile. A 2021 systematic review concluded that while terpinolene has reported biological effects, the evidence base is dominated by in silico, in vitro, and animal studies rather than human trials [28].
The Entourage Effect: Real or Hype?
The entourage hypothesis — that cannabinoids and terpenes work better together than alone — is influential and worth studying [20][29]. But here’s the honest truth: robust clinical proof of clinically meaningful entourage effects in humans remains limited [20].
We’re not including seven cannabinoids and seven terpenes because we have definitive proof they all synergize perfectly. We’re including them because:
- The preclinical literature suggests potential synergy [20][29]
- Bentley’s decade-long journey showed that single cannabinoids weren’t enough for complex, evolving conditions
- The traditional RSO model of single-strain, THC-only dominance has obvious limitations
- Our customers report that the multi-compound approach feels more balanced and effective
We’re committed to the science, but we’re also committed to real-world results. The entourage effect is plausible, and we’re watching the research closely. But we won’t overstate it.
Legal Status: What Screven County Residents Need to Know
Farm Bill Compliance
The 2018 Farm Bill legalized hemp and hemp-derived products containing less than 0.3% delta-9 THC by dry weight at the federal level. Our RSO Sublingual Oil contains only 90 milligrams of delta-9 THC in the entire 30 mL bottle — that’s 3 milligrams per mL, well under the federal threshold. All cannabinoids in our formula are hemp-derived.
This means our product is legal in Georgia and can be shipped directly to Screven County. You don’t need a medical card. You don’t need to qualify under Georgia’s limited medical cannabis program. You just need to be 21 or older.
THCa: The Legal Distinction That Matters
THCa is the acidic, non-psychoactive precursor to delta-9 THC. At the point of sale, THCa is Farm Bill compliant because it is not delta-9 THC. The practical significance is enormous: you can legally purchase our product in Screven County, decide to decarboxylate it at home, and activate approximately 1,315 additional milligrams of delta-9 THC — creating a product with psychoactive potency comparable to traditional illegal RSO, entirely through legal means.
This is not a loophole; it’s chemistry. The product is legal everywhere all component cannabinoids are legal, which enables us to ship to Screven County and internationally to jurisdictions with compatible hemp laws.
Georgia State Law
Georgia’s hemp laws align with the Farm Bill. The Georgia Department of Agriculture regulates hemp production, and hemp-derived products with less than 0.3% delta-9 THC are legal for sale and possession. Our products comply with these standards.
However, we must be clear about one thing: if you decarboxylate our product and create delta-9 THC, you are responsible for understanding how Georgia law applies to your possession and use of that converted product. We provide the legal product; you make the legal decisions about activation.
Important legal notice: THCa converts to delta-9 THC when heated. Customers are responsible for understanding and complying with Georgia law. We ship with full documentation, Certificates of Analysis, and receipts for hemp-derived products. Buyer assumes all responsibility for use and any decarboxylation decisions.
Media Recognition: Why ABC13 Houston’s Coverage Matters to Screven County
You might wonder why coverage from a Houston TV station should matter to someone in Screven County. Here’s why: between September 2019 and April 2023, ABC13 Houston (KTRK) — the ABC affiliate serving America’s fourth-largest city — featured Colin Valencia and OilWell Cannabis in seven distinct news segments. Five different reporters sought us out across those years: Tom Abrahams, Steve Campion, Shelley Childers, Nick Natario, and KTRK staff writers.
When a major-market news organization with rigorous editorial standards repeatedly chooses the same source for cannabis expertise, that source has earned credibility through consistency, accuracy, and trustworthiness. That credibility extends beyond Houston. When you search for “RSO Screven County” and find our guide, you can know that our information has been vetted by professional journalists over four years of coverage.
The Seven ABC13 Features: A Timeline of Trust
September 15, 2019: “Texas CBD businesses booming” — Our first feature, where Colin laid out our foundational philosophy: “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.”
March 22, 2021: “Entrepreneur creates direct-to-consumer business” — Coverage of our ecosystem-building work helping other entrepreneurs like Jonathan Pina enter the legal cannabis space. Colin’s quote: “Pain comes in a lot of different forms” — speaking to the therapeutic dimension beyond just getting high.
May 24, 2021: “What is Delta 8 THC” — Steve Campion’s investigative piece featuring our famous exchange: When asked why someone would want Delta-8, Colin answered bluntly, “Maybe you want to get high.” ABC13 aired the uncensored honesty, demonstrating our commitment to transparency over sanitized marketing.
August 20, 2021: “Houston CBD shop giving away free products for COVID vaccine” — We donated approximately $35,000 worth of product (1,000 caviar pre-rolls) to encourage COVID-19 vaccination. We coordinated with the City of Houston to help get more people vaccinated because that was the right thing to do.
October 19, 2021: “Texas ban over Delta 8” — When Texas DSHS suddenly classified Delta-8 as Schedule I, we proactively removed all Delta-8 products before enforcement began. Colin warned other operators who were unknowingly shipping what had become Schedule I narcotics, prioritizing community safety over sales.
October 7, 2022: “Biden marijuana pardon” — This feature revealed Colin’s personal marijuana conviction history, showing that our founder has lived the consequences of cannabis criminalization. The article opened with our CBD vending machine innovation, demonstrating our commitment to accessibility.
April 21, 2023: “Marijuana industry getting creative” — Our most recent feature, where Colin described the current moment as a “Renaissance” that “should be enjoyed now,” positioning OilWell at the forefront of legal cannabis innovation.

Condition-Specific Guidance for Screven County
Cancer Support (Chemotherapy-Related Nausea & Appetite)
We need to be very clear: RSO has not been proven to cure cancer in humans. No cannabis product has. The preclinical research showing cannabinoids can induce apoptosis (cell death) in certain cancer lines has not translated to proven human cancer cures .
What the evidence does support:
- Nausea relief: Delta-8 THC has antiemetic properties [9]; Delta-9 THC is FDA-approved for chemo nausea [1][13]
- Appetite stimulation: THC can help combat chemotherapy-related appetite loss [1]
- Sleep support: CBN (25-50mg) may help with sleep architecture [16][17]
Screven County protocol:
- Pre-chemo: 0.5-1.0mL sublingual (raw) 1 hour before treatment
- Acute breakthrough nausea: 2-3 vape puffs for immediate relief
- Post-chemo: 0.5mL sublingual every 6 hours as needed for appetite
- Sleep: 1.0-2.0mL sublingual before bed
CRITICAL: This is supportive care, not cancer treatment. If you’re undergoing cancer treatment in Savannah, Augusta, or at home in Screven County, discuss cannabinoid use with your oncologist. Do not replace proven therapies with RSO. That path carries real harm potential, and we won’t be part of it.
Chronic Pain (Arthritis, Fibromyalgia, Neuropathy)
Screven County’s agricultural heritage means many residents have spent decades doing physical labor. Chronic pain is common here, and the opioid crisis has made many folks wary of prescription painkillers.
Evidence:
- CBD shows promise for pain relief [4]
- Delta-9 THC has documented analgesic effects but carries psychiatric risks at high doses [13][15]
- Beta-caryophyllene activates CB2 receptors, potentially reducing inflammation [24]
- THCa may reduce inflammation via COX-2 inhibition [12]
Screven County protocol:
- Daytime functional relief: 0.3-0.5mL raw sublingual (no impairment)
- Nighttime: 0.5-1.0mL sublingual (delivers CBN for sleep)
- Breakthrough pain: Vape as needed (1-2 minute onset)
Start low, go slow. Chronic pain requires consistent management, not heroic doses.
Sleep Disorders
Sleep issues plague rural communities. The stress of farming, shift work at plants near Statesboro, or PTSD from military service — sleep is a major issue in Screven County.
Evidence reality check: The research on cannabinoids and sleep is methodologically weak [5][17]. Many studies rely on subjective measures rather than objective sleep assessments. CBN’s reputation as a sleep aid is stronger than the clinical evidence [16].
What we can offer:
- 25-50mg CBN (from 1.0-2.0mL sublingual) may help with sleep architecture
- The relaxation from CBD and linalool may support sleep onset
- But we won’t promise miracles because the science doesn’t support them
Screven County protocol: Try 1.0mL sublingual 1 hour before bed. If needed after 3-4 nights, increase to 2.0mL. Track your sleep quality honestly.
Anxiety and PTSD
This is deeply personal for us. Colin’s lived experience with PTSD and benzo addiction informs everything about our Peace Gummies and RSO formulation.
Evidence:
- CBD shows anxiolytic effects in meta-analyses, though sample sizes remain limited [3]
- CBG’s pharmacology suggests potential for anxiety via 5-HT1A pathways [7]
- Limonene may complement these effects [20]
Screven County protocol:
- Daytime: 0.3mL raw sublingual for functional relief
- Acute anxiety spike: 2-3 vape puffs for rapid onset
- Nighttime: 1.0mL sublingual to calm the nervous system
For veterans in Screven County, for trauma survivors, for anyone whose nervous system is stuck in overdrive — we understand. We’ve been there.
Tapering Off Benzodiazepines
This is where our story gets personal. Colin quit Xanax cold turkey using cannabinoid protocols he developed. It’s dangerous and shouldn’t be done without medical supervision, but cannabinoids can be a tool in the tapering process.
Screven County approach:
- Work with your doctor on a slow taper schedule
- Use Peace Gummies or RSO sublingual to manage withdrawal symptoms
- The multi-cannabinoid approach addresses anxiety, muscle spasms, and insomnia simultaneously
Please don’t do this alone. If you’re in Screven County and trying to get off benzos, talk to your doctor. If you need a doctor who understands cannabinoids, we can recommend some in the Savannah area who are knowledgeable.

Same-Day Delivery? Not to Screven County (Yet)
Our same-day delivery system currently serves the Houston area only. For Screven County, we rely on shipping. However, we’re exploring partnerships with delivery services in the Savannah metro area that could eventually serve Screven County. If you’re a Savannah-area business interested in partnering, contact us.
International Shipping
Yes, we ship internationally. The THCa legal framework makes this possible. We’ve delivered to multiple countries across multiple continents. For Screven County residents with family overseas who need access, this matters.
All international packages include:
- Full documentation
- Certificates of Analysis (COAs)
- Receipts for customs
- Hemp product declarations
Important: International customers accept all customs and legal responsibility. Check your country’s laws before ordering.
Payment Methods
We accept all major credit cards. For Screven County residents concerned about privacy, your bank statement will show a discreet transaction descriptor, not “cannabis” or “THC.”
Screven County-Specific Considerations
Agricultural Heritage & Hemp Connection
Screven County has deep agricultural roots. Many families have farmed this land for generations. You understand plants. You understand that quality starts at the source. Our hemp-derived cannabinoids come from carefully selected sources, but we also recognize that Georgia’s climate could support hemp cultivation. We’re watching Georgia’s hemp program closely and would love to partner with Screven County farmers as the industry develops.
Healthcare Access
Screven County residents often travel to Savannah or Augusta for specialist care. That’s time, money, and stress. Our direct-to-consumer model eliminates that travel burden. You can order from home, have it delivered to your door, and consult with us by phone or email for guidance.
Veteran Community
Screven County has a strong veteran population. Our Asshole Peach gummies are particularly favored by veterans for PTSD and pain relief. We understand the unique challenges veterans face — Colin’s own PTSD informs our product development. We offer a 10% veteran discount on all orders (contact us for verification details).
Rural Internet & Ordering
We know internet access can be spotty in rural Screven County. Our website is mobile-optimized for slower connections. If you have trouble ordering online, call us directly at (832) 416-2816. We can take your order over the phone and walk you through the process.
Local Economic Impact
While we’re based in Houston, we believe in supporting the communities we serve. We’re exploring ways to partner with Screven County businesses for local pickup points or delivery hubs. If you’re a Screven County business owner interested in carrying our products, contact us about wholesale opportunities.
Safety & Quality: What Screven County Should Expect
Third-Party Testing
Every batch is tested for:
- Cannabinoid potency (verified to ±2% accuracy)
- Pesticides (400+ compound screening)
- Heavy metals (arsenic, cadmium, lead, mercury)
- Residual solvents (FDA Class 3 limits)
- Microbial contaminants (E. coli, Salmonella, Aspergillus)
COAs are available on our website and by request. If you’re in Screven County and want to see the lab report for your specific batch, we’ll email it to you before shipping.
Organic MCT Oil Base
We use organic MCT oil (medium-chain triglycerides) as our carrier. It’s food-grade, facilitates sublingual absorption, and provides a neutral taste profile — a massive improvement over the tar-like consistency and solvent-residual odor of traditional RSO.
No Harmful Solvents
Traditional RSO uses naphtha or isopropyl alcohol. We use zero solvents in production. Our product is a formulated blend of individual cannabinoid distillates and isolates combined in a controlled environment. This eliminates the residual solvent risk that’s one of traditional RSO’s biggest safety concerns.
age Requirement
You must be 21+ to purchase our RSO products. We verify age at checkout.
Pregnancy & Nursing
The NIH warns against cannabis use during pregnancy due to potential fetal development concerns [1]. If you’re pregnant or nursing in Screven County, please consult your healthcare provider before using any cannabinoid product.
Driving & Operating Machinery
Do not drive or operate farm equipment in Screven County while under the influence of psychoactive cannabinoids. Even if you feel functional, impairment can affect reaction time and judgment. Our raw THCa option exists specifically so you can get relief without this risk.
The Open-Source Promise: Transparency You Can Verify
We Publish Everything
Our complete formulas are public. The tables earlier in this guide show every milligram and percentage. Why? Because Screven County residents deserve transparency. Because if you can’t afford our product, you should still have access to the knowledge. Because that’s what Rick Simpson would have wanted.
Bentley’s Golden Paste Recipe
We published the actual CBD golden paste recipe that saved Bentley’s life. Here it is again:
CBD Golden Paste for Pets:
- 1/2 cup organic turmeric powder
- 1 cup water
- 1/3 cup unrefined organic coconut oil
- 1-2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper (for absorption)
- CBD oil (dosage depends on pet size; consult a vet)
Mix turmeric and water in a saucepan over low heat until thick paste forms (7-10 minutes). Add coconut oil and pepper. Cool and store in refrigerator for up to two weeks. Mix with pet’s food.
We give this away for free because it saved Bentley. That’s the OilWell way.
How to Make Your Own RSO
If you want to make our RSO formula yourself:
- Source individual cannabinoid distillates/isolates (ensure COAs)
- Mix precise amounts per our formula table
- Dissolve in organic MCT oil at 553mg/mL concentration
- Add live terpenes at 5% (if available)
- Test final product if possible
We can recommend suppliers. While most Screven County residents prefer to buy the finished product, we support your right to DIY.
Why OilWell Is Different: The Screven County Perspective
Not Corporate Cannabis
We’re not a faceless corporation. We’re a Houston-based company founded by someone who grew up in border-town poverty, saved his dog with cannabinoids, and quit benzos using the same protocols we sell. Our story is personal, and that authenticity resonates with Screven County’s values.
Evidence-Based, Not Hype-Based
Every claim in this guide is tied to peer-reviewed research. We tell you what we know, what we suspect, and what we don’t know. That honesty is rare in cannabis marketing, and it’s why Screven County residents can trust our information.
Community Commitment
From our $35,000 COVID vaccine giveaway to proactively warning other businesses about Delta-8 legality changes, we put community before profit. If we discover safety concerns, we share them. If we can help Screven County residents access healthier options, we do it.
Direct Access
No driving to Atlanta. No medical card. No waiting for an appointment. Order from home in Screven County, get it delivered. That simplicity matters when you’re dealing with health challenges.

Final Thoughts for Screven County
When you search “RSO Screven County” or “Rick Simpson Oil Georgia,” you’re looking for hope. Maybe you’re a cancer patient at St. Joseph’s/Candler in Savannah looking for supportive care options. Maybe you’re a veteran in Sylvania dealing with PTSD that the VA hasn’t adequately addressed. Maybe you’re a farmer outside Oliver with chronic back pain who’s tired of pills that don’t work.
We’ve been there. Bentley’s story is about desperation turning to hope. Colin’s story is about pharmaceutical failure leading to cannabinoid discovery. Our company was built from suffering that turned into mission.
We can’t promise miracles. No ethical company can. What we promise is:
- Transparency — every ingredient, every amount, every time
- Quality — lab-tested, solvent-free, contaminant-free
- Education — evidence-based information, not marketing fluff
- Access — legal shipping to Screven County, no gatekeeping
- Support — real people answering your questions
The term “RSO” has been diluted by an industry that slaps the name on anything in a syringe. Traditional RSO had serious safety and standardization problems. We’ve evolved the concept while honoring its origins.
For Screven County residents, this means you get a product that’s:
- Legal under Georgia and federal law
- Precise — 553mg/mL, not “some THC in oil”

- Tested — full COA for every batch
- Supported — we’re here to help you succeed
