A B S T R A C T A method of diverting from a supply of grains a plurality of parallel intermittent single flows of grains, especially for sowing one seed in each one of a number of plant growing pots. The method comprises the steps of causing the grains of the supply to move in a definite direction on a plane support by utilizing vibration feed, and dividing the resulting wide grain flow into a plurality of paral- lel single-row flows by guiding said wide grain flow into a corre- sponding number of grain paths connected to said plane. For this pur- pose each of said grain paths is designed so as to be able to convey only a single row of grains. Further, each grain path cooperates with one grain-carrying cavity for transferring the grains one by one to said cavity which rotates about an axle and discharges the grains at predetermined time intervals in accurately determined po- sitions after rotation through a certain angle.
