This paper deals with effects of application of new seedling technology for production by using hydroponics - Todd cells. The experiment was designed as split-plot system with four replications. Plant material of tobacco of Virginia type was cultivar Hevesi-9 (Hungarian) and two ways of seedling technology: Traditional and Hydroponics - Todd cells. Tobacco seedlings were transplanted by using four rows planting machine; plant spacing was 70 x 50 cm. Standard agrotechnical measures were undertaken during growth period. The yield and quality (chemical and organoleptic characteristics, and degustation marks) of middle leaves were determined. Results showed that new technology makes growth period shorter in general. Differences occurred between two seedling technologies: the highest dry leaf yield was recorded at hydroponics - Todd cells (2,510 kg/ha), that was higher than yield at traditional seedling technology for 14,7%. Cv. Hevesi-9 had the best chemical characteristic as well. This is why this new seedling technology cultivar could be recommended to producers.
