Despite the extensive research on the botany, phytochemistry, and pharmacology of Rif's cannabis, there is limited comparative research on the fruits and oils of different strains cultivated in the region. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; This study examined the biometric, germinative and physicochemical properties of three cannabis strains grown in the Western Rif region of Morocco. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and methods:&lt;/strong&gt; three cannabis strains (Beldiya, Khardala and Critical) were characterized by their biometric parameters (weight, length and width), germinative and physicochemical properties. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The study revelated that there are notable differences in the biometric properties and germination rates of the achenes of the strains studied. Additionally, significant variations were observed between the strains with regards to their oil yield, as well as the levels of polyphenols and flavonoids. The results also revealed a correlation between biometric parameters, germination rate and phytochemical content. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The oils of all strains studied were extra virgin, and the Beldiya strain's fruit oil was found to be particularly rich in polyphenols and flavonoids, making it a potentially useful ingredient in nutrition and health applications. Overall, this study provides useful information for researchers and growers interested in the cultivation and use of cannabis fruits and oils in various industries.&lt;/p&gt;

In all four samples, the oil refractive index of &lt;em&gt;Milk thistle&lt;/em&gt; oil fatty acids vis. Linoleic acid, Oleic acid, Palmitic acid was evaluated. The Peroxide test and determination of oil percentage was performed in &lt;em&gt;Milk thistle&lt;/em&gt; seed oil.&lt;/p&gt;
