Waskom, Texas, is more than just a city on the East Texas landscape; it’s a community that values its heritage, appreciates local businesses, and understands the importance of well-being. Nestled in Harrison County, near the Louisiana border, Waskom stands as a gateway city, with a vibrant yet tranquil atmosphere unique to this part of our great state. We understand the diverse needs of Waskom residents, from those who work in local industries to those who cherish the quiet pace of life that defines East Texas. That’s why we at OilWell Cannabis are privileged to extend our pharmaceutical-grade cannabis solutions to this discerning community and its neighbors, including Marshall, Shreveport, and the broader Ark-La-Tex region.

Our journey began not in a boardroom, but at the bedside of a beloved family member, our founder’s loyal pitbull, Bentley. At eight years old, Bentley faced a veterinary death sentence due to terminal neurodegeneration, paralyzing his back legs. The vets offered no hope, suggesting euthanasia as the only humane option, stating that traditional pain medications would only cause more suffering. But for our founder, giving up wasn’t an option. Having endured significant loss and hardship in life, a fighter like Bentley deserved a fighting chance.

Driven by desperation, our founder tirelessly
searched for alternatives, and a pivotal question from a kind-hearted rescue worker named Jessica changed everything: “You’ve moved how many tons of weed and you’ve never heard of CBD?” This moment marked the profound transition from viewing cannabis solely for recreation to recognizing its profound medicinal potential. This question opened a door to a world of healing previously unknown. Our founder meticulously learned to formulate CBD golden paste. While initially a lifeline, Bentley’s condition gradually improved. Then, a true miracle unfolded: Bentley, once paralyzed, rose, walked to our founder, and brought his ball, eager to play. This impossible recovery proved the healing power of cannabis. Bentley lived for an astonishing 10 more years, reaching the ripe old age of 20, passing naturally from old age – defying every veterinary prognosis. Throughout those precious years, our founder dedicated countless hours to developing specialized formulas to alleviate Bentley’s neurodegeneration, dementia, glaucoma, and crippling arthritis. These aren’t just generic pet products; they are pharmaceutical-grade precision formulations, meticulously refined, and now serving as the foundation for every OilWell Cannabis product we offer today.

This deeply personal journey, born from necessity and compassion, transformed into our mission: to create real solutions that alleviate pain and suffering for both pets and people. This commitment to quality, innovation, and compassionate care is woven into the very fabric of OilWell Cannabis, extending from our Houston roots to the heart of Waskom, across Harrison County, and throughout the entire Ark-La-Tex. We are a Houston-based company, built on integrity and a relentless pursuit of wellness, serving communities like yours with products that consistently exceed expectations.

Our founder’s path to creating OilWell Cannabis is deeply rooted in the raw authenticity of the McAllen-Reynosa Borderplex, a region of stark contrasts along the US-Mexico border. Growing up in McAllen, Texas, directly across from Reynosa, Tamaulipas, Mexico, our founder was exposed to both immense challenges and vibrant cultural richness. This Borderplex, one of the most economically disadvantaged and dangerous regions, shaped a profound understanding of survival and resilience. Hustling was a necessity, often involving risky cross-border ventures. Our founder witnessed unimaginable violence, watching friends fall victim to premature death or incarceration. By the age of 16, leaving home wasn’t a choice but a matter of survival, escaping a path that offered no neutrality. Yet, amidst these harrowing circumstances, a critical choice was made: to focus on cannabis, a substance perceived as a safer and more beneficial alternative, rather than succumbing to the allure of harder, more destructive paths. This journey from the street to a legitimate, healing business underscores the moral foundation of OilWell Cannabis. It’s a testament to overcoming extreme adversity, transforming personal survival into a mission of positive impact. Our founder’s deep understanding of suffering, violence, and loss informs every product we create, underscoring why uncompromising quality and genuine therapeutic benefit are paramount.

This profound personal history is why our medical formulas aren’t theoretical; they are clinically applied and doctor-validated. Our founder has personally developed formulas that are trusted by medical professionals for conditions such as Crohn’s disease, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Ulcerative Colitis (UC), Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), benzo addiction, and insomnia. These precisely crafted solutions are designed not only for effectiveness but also for accessibility, formulated to be vegan-friendly and diabetic-friendly, ensuring that individuals with specific health needs are never forgotten. This commitment to inclusive innovation and targeted therapeutic solutions sets OilWell Cannabis apart, demonstrating an expertise far beyond mere personal use—it’s trusted by the medical community itself.

In a state like Texas, where the cannabis landscape is complex, our operational reality is one of pioneering legal innovation. We operate successfully within the existing legal framework, adhering strictly to Farm Bill loopholes to carve out a unique lane in the industry. This lane prioritizes quality, innovation, and the well-being of our customers above all else. Every product at OilWell Cannabis is a testament to this philosophy: not mass-produced, but carefully crafted with a personal touch. From the distinctive artwork on our packaging to the precise cannabinoid ratios in our formulations, everything is conceived and created in-house, infused with a unique vision that is distinctly OilWell. We don’t follow trends; we set them, while maintaining unwavering integrity, creativity, and commitment to our promise: to always deliver the best, most thoughtful cannabis products available. This brand identity extends to our global vision, already shipping internationally to ensure our carefully crafted products reach those who need them most, wherever they are. We are constantly innovating, translating our work into multiple languages, and connecting with more people who can benefit from accessible, high-quality, and effective cannabis solutions. For us, it’s not just about creating products; it’s about crafting a movement that reflects our dedication to quality, authenticity, and making a real difference in the lives of many.

This commitment to transparent and ethical operations is why Houston, a global hub of innovation and diverse communities, recognizes OilWell Cannabis as a leading authority. Our founder, Colin Valencia, has been featured in no less than seven ABC13 Houston news segments from 2019 to 2023, establishing us as the go-to cannabis expert source for the 4th largest city in the United States. When ABC13 needs to explain complex cannabis laws, clarify therapeutic benefits, or comment on industry changes to millions of viewers, they call us. Our journey through these media appearances highlights our unwavering dedication to the community, responsible education, and legal integrity.

In 2019, ABC13 featured Colin Valencia as the owner of OilWell CBD during the booming CBD industry, following the Texas House Bill 1325. We were applauded for our commitment to education over hype. Colin stated, “It’s a lot of educating people, but not over-promising people. 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.” This set the tone for our transparent and honest approach.

By 2021, ABC13 covered our innovative partnership with High Maintenance Edibles, showcasing how we support other cannabis entrepreneurs. Colin’s quote from that segment resonates deeply with our philosophy: “People think that everyone just wants to get high and it’s about giggling and things like that, and there’s nothing wrong with that. But that’s a different version of therapy, and people are looking for things to help them with real pain. Pain comes in a lot of different forms.” This acknowledgement of both recreational and therapeutic uses, while prioritizing genuine relief, demonstrates our non-judgmental and compassionate stance.

In May 2021, when Delta-8 THC burst onto the scene, ABC13 again turned to us for clarification. Colin Valencia, speaking with his characteristic raw authenticity, succinctly explained its appeal: “I don’t give a sh*t if it’s wrong to say you’ll get high off it. Maybe you want to get high.” This candidness, alongside an emphasis on therapeutic benefits and affordable pricing, cemented our role as a trusted educator.

Our community commitment was further showcased in August 2021, when we partnered with the City of Houston for a monumental COVID-19 vaccine giveaway. We distributed $35,000 worth of premium products, including 1,000 caviar pre-rolls, to incentivize vaccinations. “We just want Houston to be as healthy as possible,” Colin stated. This initiative demonstrated our belief in public health and civic partnership over political agendas, solidifying our status as a community leader.

When the Texas Department of State Health Services unexpectedly declared Delta-8 illegal in October 2021, we acted swiftly and ethically. We immediately removed all Delta-8 products and proactively warned other operators, protecting them from inadvertently shipping Schedule I narcotics. Colin Valencia’s quote highlighted our concern: “So those people are now, because they didn’t know, shipping Schedule 1 narcotics.” This integrity, even at a financial cost, proved our unwavering commitment to legal compliance and industry-wide well-being.

In October 2022, following President Biden’s marijuana pardon announcement, ABC13 highlighted Colin Valencia’s personal experience with marijuana possession charges. He openly spoke about the debilitating impacts—challenges with housing, loans, and banking—and voiced his desire to see an end to such harms: “I would love to see people not get hurt for this anymore.” This personal vulnerability and advocacy for criminal justice reform underscore the authentic and deeply human mission behind OilWell Cannabis.

Finally, in 2023, ABC13 again featured us as Texas considered expanding medical marijuana access. Colin Valencia, ever the pragmatic visionary, declared, “I want it to be legalized,” but also recognized the present as a “Renaissance” for businesses operating within current legal frameworks: “Right now is actually a pretty – like Renaissance – pretty important time that should be enjoyed now.” This vision allows us to maximize present opportunities while advocating for a future with broader access and understanding.

Our diverse product catalog is a direct result of these foundational principles and experiences, reflecting our commitment to scientifically backed, accessible, and effective cannabis solutions. Each product category is meticulously crafted to meet specific therapeutic needs.

Revolutionary THCa RSO Sublingual Oil: $129.99
This isn’t just Rick Simpson Oil; it’s the world’s ONLY legal RSO that delivers SUPERIOR effects through revolutionary dual-pathway technology. Traditional RSO, pioneered by Rick Simpson to cure his own skin cancer, relied on illicit Delta-9 THC. Our breakthrough formulation, however, harnesses 1,500mg of THCa. This means you get the raw anti-inflammatory power of THCa, which then converts to Delta-9 THC when heated, offering DUAL therapeutic pathways. No other product provides this legal genius, circumventing federal limits on Delta-9 THC by leveraging THCa’s unregulated status. We pack a massive 16,590mg of total cannabinoids into every bottle, making it 200-400 times cheaper than pharmaceutical CBD alternatives like Epidiolex, whose 90-day protocol can cost $30,000 to $50,000, compared to our $519.96. The formulation is dominated by 6,000mg of Delta-8 THC, which a Journal of Cannabis Research 2022 study (N=521) found led 74% of users to report NO anxiety and 83% to report NO paranoia, offering a smoother therapeutic experience than Delta-9. It also contains 3,000mg of CBG, a dose that is 150 times higher than the 20mg shown in a Washington State University 2024 clinical trial (N=34) to significantly reduce anxiety. We then integrate 4,500mg of CBD, 750mg of CBN (the 30mg clinical dose validated for sleep by BMJ Open 2023 is present in 25 doses), 750mg of CBC, a full live terpene complex, and Farm Bill compliant trace amounts of Delta-9 THC. This comprehensive full-spectrum blend provides an entourage effect that ensures maximum synergy, delivering more potent and holistic relief for conditions from cancer support and chronic pain to neurological disorders and inflammation.

Revolutionary THCa RSO Vape Cartridge 1 Gram: $49.99
For instant relief with the strength of traditional RSO, our THCa RSO Vape is unparalleled. This is the world’s ONLY legal RSO vape that delivers immediate traditional RSO effects by instantly converting THCa to Delta-9 THC when vaped. It’s designed for rapid onset, delivering therapeutic benefits in 1-2 minutes, making it ideal for acute pain, severe nausea, panic attacks, or rapid sleep induction. Each 1-gram cartridge contains 1,000mg of cannabinoids, including 30% CBD, 20% CBG, 15% Delta-8 THC, and 10% each of THCa, CBN, and CBC, plus 5% live terpenes. This vape offers the fastest non-injection route to comprehensive cannabinoid relief, with 40-60% bioavailability.

Our diverse Gummy Collection offers targeted solutions, each priced at $39.99 for a 10-count package:

“The Asshole” Peach Gummy Rings
This veteran-grade formulation is our most potent, featuring 118mg of total THC (28mg Delta-9, 50mg Delta-8, 20mg Delta-10, 20mg THCo) per gummy. It’s specifically designed for high-tolerance individuals, especially veterans managing severe pain and PTSD. Despite its high potency, it includes robust triple anxiety protection with 100mg CBD and 50mg CBG—7.5 times the 20mg dose shown in the WSU 2024 study to reduce anxiety. This multi-layered approach delivers sustained relief without the paranoia often associated with high THC doses.

PEACE Gummy Peaches
This is the product our founder uses nightly to manage severe PTSD and insomnia, enabling a successful—though not medically recommended without supervision—cold-turkey cessation from Xanax. Each gummy contains 30mg of CBN, matching the clinically validated dose for insomnia from the BMJ Open 2023 protocol, ensuring sleep without next-day grogginess. It also includes 15mg Delta-9 THC, 25mg Delta-8 THC, 100mg CBD, and a powerful 150mg of CBG, offering maximum anxiety protection, a dose 7.5 times higher than the WSU 2024 anxiety study’s effective dose.

Premium Peach Gummies
Our “Sativex-inspired” formulation, these gummies offer a balanced 1.8:1 ratio of 28mg Delta-9 THC to 50mg CBD, further enhanced by 50mg CBG. Sativex, a 1:1 THC:CBD prescription drug approved in over 30 countries for MS spasticity, provides a pharmaceutical benchmark. This blend offers functional euphoria, pain relief, and cognitive clarity, making it excellent for daytime use or social settings, especially for individuals seeking relief from chronic pain, mood disorders, or even as an alcohol replacement.

Formula 121 Peach Gummy Rings (NEW!)
Perfect for beginners or those seeking mild, anxiety-safe relief, Formula 121 features a balanced 1:1:1 ratio of 50mg Delta-8 THC, 50mg CBD, and 50mg CBG. The Journal of Cannabis Research 2022 study highlighted Delta-8’s low anxiety profile, while the high CBG and CBD content provide triple anxiety protection, making it virtually impossible to feel “too high.” This blend offers gentle relaxation, mood elevation, and functional relief without any mental fog or paranoia.

Our 10mg Delta-9 THC + 10mg CBD Chocolates, priced at $29.99 for a 10-count package, are another benchmark of precision. These chocolates perfectly replicate the 1:1 THC:CBD ratio of Sativex. They are Farm Bill compliant, proving that potent, legal Delta-9 THC products can be delivered directly to your door. This beginner-friendly option provides low-dose, predictable effects, ideal for microdosing or precise titration for conditions like anxiety, chronic pain, or neurological spasticity.

For our health-conscious customers in Waskom and beyond, we launched SWEETEMintz Sugar-Free Nano Peppermint Hard Candy, at $39.99 for a 10-count package. Each candy delivers 28mg of nano-enhanced Delta-9 THC, 100mg of nano-enhanced CBD, and 50mg of CBG. Our nano-emulsion technology offers 5x better bioavailability and a rapid 15-30 minute onset compared to traditional edibles. Crucially, these candies are sugar-free, using Isomalt to ensure zero glycemic impact, making them diabetic, vegan, and keto-friendly. This innovation speaks directly to our philosophy of inclusivity, driven by our founder’s personal insights into the challenges faced by diabetics in communities like the Borderplex where diabetes rates are high.

Our THCa Flower Collection, with prices ranging from $74.99 to $249.99, offers over 50 medical-grade strains, each meticulously cultivated indoors and third-party lab tested. Our philosophy, “25% THCa with optimized terpenes > 35% THCa with poor terpenes,” is scientifically validated by research. The University of Arizona’s 2024 study, for example, demonstrated that specific cannabis terpenes provide pain relief equivalent to morphine. Similarly, a Johns Hopkins University 2024 study showed limonene’s ability to reduce THC-induced anxiety by 54.8%. We select strains based on their therapeutic applications and rich terpene profiles, including highly sought-after varieties like:

  • Gorilla Glue #4 (25-30% THCa): A chronic pain specialist with myrcene and caryophyllene that offers morphine-equivalent pain relief without addiction.
  • Lemon Pound Cake (28-32% THCa): An anti-anxiety medical authority validated by Johns Hopkins’ research on limonene’s profound anxiety-reducing effects.
  • Pink Pineapple (35-38% THCa): Optimized for cognitive enhancement, offering natural focus superior to pharmaceutical stimulants without the associated risks.
  • Granddaddy Purple (26-30% THCa): A sleep disorder medical authority, this myrcene- and linalool-rich strain provides natural sleep induction, superior to prescription hypnotics.
  • Sunset Fritter (33% THCa): An award-winning pain champion, boasting a triple pain pathway through its unique blend of limonene, caryophyllene, and myrcene.
  • Cherry Gushers (29-30% THCa): An indica-dominant inflammatory disease authority with high caryophyllene for direct CB2 activation.
  • Blue Dream (17-24% THCa): A diabetes and metabolic syndrome authority, contributing to glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity support.

We also offer a variety of Specialty Cannabinoid Products, including Delta-9 THCb Distillate, with potential as a COVID-19 protease inhibitor based on University of Rhode Island research, and our PEACE Vape, the founder’s personal rescue medication for acute PTSD episodes.

What began as a mission to save one beloved dog has blossomed into Houston’s most trusted cannabis delivery service, bringing the same precision, care, and commitment straight to your door.

For our valued customers in Waskom, and across the Ark-La-Tex region including Marshall, Elysian Fields, Longview, and Shreveport, our sophisticated delivery and shipping systems ensure that you receive our pharmaceutical-grade products efficiently and discreetly.

For our Houston metropolitan customers, which includes residents stretching from Galveston to The Woodlands, Katy to Baytown, and all the neighborhoods in between—from the historic Heights and Medical Center to the affluent River Oaks and Energy Corridor—we offer same-day delivery, often within 2-3 hours for orders placed by 5:00 PM. Our professional drivers, operating unmarked vehicles, provide discreet service and verify age (21+ only) at the point of delivery.

This extends across East Texas, connecting communities such as Longview, Tyler, Texarkana, Nacogdoches, and all of Harrison County. We ship to over 40 states across the nation where Farm Bill-compliant hemp products are legal, ensuring that our therapeutic solutions are accessible far and wide. However, we urge customers to verify local and state laws, as some states, like Arkansas and Idaho, have specific restrictions. International customers are also responsible for understanding their local laws, as cannabis regulations vary dramatically worldwide.

Understanding the legal landscape is paramount at OilWell Cannabis. Our products strictly adhere to the 2018 Farm Bill, which legalized hemp and hemp derivatives containing less than 0.3% Delta-9 THC by dry weight. Our THCa flower, for example, is legal because in its raw form, it remains below this Delta-9 threshold, converting to psychoactive THC only when heated. Similarly, our Delta-9 THC gummies are legal due to a precise ratio where the total product weight ensures the Delta-9 THC content remains under the 0.3% limit. However, we issue critical warnings regarding drug testing and driving impairment. All our THC-containing products, including THCa flower, Delta-8, and Delta-9 items, WILL result in a positive drug test. We strongly advise against use if subject to testing for employment or legal reasons. Furthermore, we emphasize that legal use does not equate to safe driving. We unequivocally recommend waiting a minimum of 6-8 hours after consuming edibles and 4-6 hours after vaping or smoking before operating a vehicle, as driving impaired, regardless of legality, carries severe legal consequences. For comprehensive details on these regulations and our stance on safety, please refer to our legal compliance and medical safety frameworks.

Our B2B partnership programs offer a pathway for businesses to leverage our expertise and infrastructure. Whether through Wholesale options with discounts up to 40%, Private Label Manufacturing where we develop custom formulations under your brand, or White Label Solutions providing turn-key products for your immediate use, we empower entrepreneurs. Our digital services, including cannabis-compliant web design, PANDEM1C SEO technology, and content creation, further extend our leadership, helping partners navigate the unique online marketing challenges of the cannabis industry.
