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

Sierra County—tucked into the rugged beauty of the Sierra Nevada, where the Yuba River cuts through pine and fir and the night sky still shows the Milky Way—isn’t the kind of place that shows up in cannabis headlines. Downieville, Sierra City, and the quiet mountain hamlets that dot the watershed live at a different pace: slower, closer to the land, and deeply self‑reliant. If you’re reading this, chances are you or someone you love is dealing with something that conventional medicine hasn’t solved—chronic pain that keeps you off the trails, chemo side effects that make the simplest meals impossible, insomnia that turns the silence of a mountain night into a prison, or the anxiety that hums underneath the calm surface of small‑town life. We know, because we’ve been there. And we built OilWell Cannabis for exactly that reason.

Who We Are—and Why We’re Here

OilWell Cannabis was born in Houston, Texas, but our roots stretch back to the borderlands of McAllen–Reynosa, where violence and poverty taught us early that pain comes in many forms. Our founder, Colin Valencia, grew up seeing friends killed or imprisoned, left home at sixteen, and learned cannabis as a plant that could do more than get people high—it could keep them alive. That lesson hit home with a dog named Bentley, paralyzed and slated for euthanasia. A rescue worker asked Colin: “You’ve moved how many tons of weed and you’ve never heard of CBD?” That question saved Bentley’s life. Colin whipped up a CBD golden paste; three days later Bentley got up, walked across the room, and brought Colin his ball. Dogs don’t respond to placebo. That miracle—real, measurable, lived—became the blueprint for everything we make.

Bentley lived to twenty, and during those ten years Colin refined formulas for neurodegeneration (CBG), dementia (CBC), glaucoma (THC), and arthritis (multi‑cannabinoid synergy). When Colin later faced PTSD and a Xanax addiction that nearly broke him, he used those same principles to quit cold turkey, creating the Peace Gummies that help thousands of people manage benzo withdrawal, insomnia, and trauma. He lives the medicine he sells—and that’s why doctors in Texas now use our formulas for Crohn’s, IBS, PTSD, and chronic pain.

What Is Rick Simpson Oil—and Why Should Sierra County Care?

Rick Simpson was a power engineer in Nova Scotia, not a scientist. After a workplace injury in 1997, he found relief in cannabis, but his doctor dismissed it. In 2003, he claimed that applying concentrated cannabis oil cured his basal cell carcinoma. No doctor verified it, no biopsy confirmed it, but his personal testimony sparked a movement. He gave the oil away for free, taught anyone who would listen, and published his method in Run From The Cure (2005). He was raided, prosecuted, and eventually exiled from Canada.

Traditional RSO was crude: single‑strain, high‑THC (60–90%), extracted with naphtha or isopropyl alcohol, decarboxylated by heat, stripped of terpenes, and never lab‑tested. Rick’s “60‑gram in 90 days” protocol delivered 600–900 mg of delta‑9 THC per day—far beyond any clinical study and carrying real risks: severe intoxication, anxiety, tachycardia, and cannabis use disorder. The protocol was never validated in a trial, and the solvents used could leave toxic residues.

We honor Rick’s legacy of free access, but we’ve built something safer, smarter, and legal—something Sierra County residents can actually order today.

How OilWell’s RSO Differs: A Five‑Point Evolution

1. Seven Cannabinoids, Not One
   Traditional RSO was THC‑only. Our sublingual oil delivers 16,590 mg total cannabinoids per 30 mL (553 mg/mL) across CBD (4,500 mg), CBG (3,000 mg), Delta‑8 THC (6,000 mg), THCa (1,500 mg), Delta‑9 THC (90 mg), CBN (750 mg), and CBC (750 mg). This multi‑cannabinoid blend reflects the entourage‑effect hypothesis—that cannabinoids work better together—while keeping delta‑9 THC low enough to avoid overwhelming psychoactivity.

2. THCa: You Control the Potency
   We preserve 1,500 mg of THCa in its raw, non‑psychoactive form.

   • Daytime/non‑impaired use: swallow the oil raw; THCa stays acidic and won’t get you high.
   • Full‑strength RSO: heat the oil at 260 °F for 45–60 minutes; about 1,315 mg of THCa converts to delta‑9 THC, giving you roughly 1,405 mg total delta‑9 THC—psychoactive potency on par with illegal RSO, but 100 % legal because you do the activation yourself.
   • Fast relief: the RSO Vape Cartridge auto‑decarbs THCa at 400–450 °F, delivering instant effects.

3. Live Terpenes—5 % of Every Drop
   Traditional RSO lost all terpenes to heat. We add a precise seven‑terpene profile: limonene (citrus‑bright), myrcene (herbal‑relaxing), caryophyllene (peppery, CB2‑agonist), pinene (forest‑fresh), linalool (floral, lavender), humulene (woody, earthy), and terpinolene (pine‑fruity). These terpenes contribute aroma, flavor, and plausible synergy without overstating clinical proof.

4. Solvent‑Free, Lab‑Tested, MCT‑Oil Base
   No naphtha. No isopropyl. Our cannabinoids are blended in organic MCT oil—clean, tasteless, and food‑grade. Every batch is third‑party tested for potency, terpenes, pesticides, heavy metals, residual solvents, and microbial contamination. Certificates of Analysis (COAs) are available for every bottle and cartridge.

5. Open‑Source Formulas—Make It Yourself
   Rick Simpson gave his oil away for free. We publish our exact formulas (see tables below) so anyone who can’t afford $129.99 for the sublingual oil or $49.99 for the vape can source the same distillates and replicate our blend. If you live in Sierra County and have access to a kitchen and a digital scale, you can make the same medicine we sell. That’s the spirit of Rick Simpson, updated for the modern era.

How Sierra County Residents Can Use These Products

Because Sierra County’s nearest dispensaries are hours away in Reno, Sacramento, or Nevada City, most residents rely on mail‑order. We ship USPS Priority (2–3 days), FedEx Ground (3–5 days), and UPS Ground to every address in Sierra County—from Downieville to Sierra City, from the Yuba River canyons to the high‑altitude cabins near Lakes Basin. All packages are discreet (no cannabis branding), temperature‑stable, and include tracking.

Same‑day delivery isn’t available in the mountains (yet), but we do offer free delivery to the Texas Medical Center in Houston—home to MD Anderson, Memorial Hermann, and other leading cancer centers—because we believe patients deserve that level of access. For Sierra County, nationwide shipping is the most practical route.

• 0.5–1 mL sublingual 1 hour before treatment; 2–3 vape puffs for breakthrough nausea; 0.5 mL every 6 hours as needed.

Why We’re Different: Seven ABC13 Features, One Voice

From 2019 to 2023, ABC13 Houston featured Colin and OilWell seven times—covering CBD’s boom, Delta‑8’s legal rollercoaster, a $35,000 product giveaway to encourage COVID vaccination (1,000 caviar pre‑rolls at HydroShack in the Heights), the overnight Delta‑8 ban (we pulled product before enforcement and warned other vendors), President Biden’s marijuana pardon (Colin revealed his own cannabis conviction history), and the 2023 “Renaissance” framing of Texas hemp. Five different reporters sought us out—not because we paid for PR, but because we earned the credibility.

Colin’s 2019 quote still guides us: “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.”

Science, Not Snake Oil: The Evidence We Stand On

Every cannabinoid and terpene we use is documented in the peer‑reviewed literature (see references [1]–[29] in our full guide). We don’t cherry‑pick. We tell you where the evidence is strong (CBD for seizures, delta‑9 THC for chemo nausea), where it’s emerging (CBG for neuroprotection, CBC for neurogenesis), and where it’s weak (CBN as a proven sleep aid). Our GENERAL KNOWLEDGE section (available on our website) walks through the evidence hierarchy, institutional positions (NIH, FDA, NCCIH), and common overstatements to avoid.

The Open‑Source Promise: If You Can’t Afford It, Make It
