I start my tobacco on polyacrylamide gel, then dibble out the most robust looking seedlings for transplanting. If you leave a lot of the gel on the roots, there's no transplant shock at all.

I grind up the dry gel granules using an old coffee grinder until they're a powder, add a few drops of fertilizer and enough water to leave the gel as thick as a stiff pudding. Sprinkle the seeds on top, cover about 80% of the area with clear tape to help control evaporation, and leave in a sunny window until everything sprouts. Works great.
