Abstract: In the present study, 3 species of Gastrodia elata (red stem, green stem, and black stem) and 3 cultivation models (indoor plot planting, indoor basket planting, and outdoor planting) were used for screening the best specie and cultivation model in northern solar greenhouses. Production of monolayer and double-layer cultivation models was also investigated. The results showed that the optimal cultivated species in northern solar greenhouses was red stem G. elata, followed by green stem G. elata, and finally black stem G. elata. Over 1 g seed red stem G. elata formed 33% of total amount and 79% of total production, which was the highest among the tested three. Among the tested 3 cultivation models, indoor plot planting manifested the highest production, followed by indoor basket planting and outdoor planting. Among all the tested 3 species, production of double-layer cultivation was remarkably higher than monolayer cultivation.
