This continuous supply mode makes the quality of raw materials more consistent, which is conducive to meeting the demand of pharmaceutical enterprises for stable supply (Wang, 2024). L. japonicus cultivated under controlled conditions has higher content of active ingredients, more guaranteed quality of medicinal materials and easier to sell at a good price. This way reduces the dependence on wild resources, protects the ecological environment and promotes the sustainable development of the industry (Nara et al., 2021). 7.2 Strengthening upstream–downstream collaboration With off-season cultivation, growers can produce standardized, high-quality raw materials that meet the requirements of pharmaceutical and processing companies. This reduces supply fluctuations and improves coordination across the supply chain (Zhao, 2024). Better integration also encourages joint development of new products, such as standardized extracts and functional health supplements, which expand the value chain and increase the commercial potential of L. japonicus (Gargaro et al., 2023). 7.3 A Model for other medicinal plants The off-season planting of Leonurus japonicus not only solves the problem of insufficient yield, but also provides ideas for the planting mode of other traditional Chinese medicine plants. Many medicinal plants also face problems such as short growth cycle and lack of wild resources, and this set of technical system, including greenhouse management, light regulation, precision fertilization, etc., can be properly transplanted and applied (Singh et al., 2024). For plants with narrow natural distributions or strict growth requirements, off-season cultivation offers a way to ensure stable production and easier quality control. It can also support export efforts by helping meet the demand for high-quality botanical products in international markets (Vernon et al., 2023). 8 Concluding Remarks By adjusting the proportion of cultivation substrate and fertilizer, controlling temperature and light, and using inducers to promote the accumulation of effective components, the experiment has achieved remarkable results. Under different environmental conditions, the growth performance and quality of Leonurus japonicus were improved. Using these technologies, growers can achieve year-round production, and solve the problem of large seasonal impact in the traditional mode. The demonstration bases established in many regions have also proved that these methods have the possibility of promotion. The production in the base is improved and the resource utilization efficiency is higher. Future work can focus on two main areas. First, improving greenhouse systems to boost energy efficiency and lower operating costs. Second, integrating smart technologies—such as IoT sensors and AI-based prediction tools—to monitor and manage environmental conditions like temperature, moisture, and light in real time, improving overall control and reducing waste. It can also be considered to screen out Leonurus japonicus varieties with more disease resistance, stronger stress resistance and higher medicinal ingredients through genetic improvement. Adjust the anti season technical scheme according to the planting environment in different climate regions. The adoption of off-season cultivation has enhanced both yield and quality while reducing reliance on wild harvesting and helping protect natural ecosystems. As demand for high-quality medicinal herbs continues to grow, this method offers a more sustainable production approach and provides a useful reference for improving the cultivation of other medicinal plants.
