The technology of cultivation of stachys, the vegetable and officinal crop, in vitro and in vivo is presented in the article. There is a problem of cultivation of this crop on big areas in private farms duo to the lack of specialized machines. The main labor-intensive process of Stachys`s agrotechnology is harvesting of nodules in autumn (in October). In this period, the temperature drops below zero, and heavy rainfall is possible. This problem can be partially solved with the use of biotechnological methods. Stachys is susceptible to viral and fungal diseases. Diseasefree plants and nodules can be obtained through in vitro propagation. The multiplication ratio of Stachys, using method of clonal micropropagation, is very high (1:200). It shows the exploitability of method of tissue culture and plant cells for cultivation of stachys.
