The single groove, double groove and three hooks of cherries indicate the grade of cherries.

The grades are distinguished according to the diameter of the fruit. The grades of cherries vary greatly, and the prices also vary a lot. Among the cherry grades in the southern hemisphere, high-quality cherries are usually in Jumbo (J is the abbreviation) as the standard unit. The J grade fruit diameter standard is 26-28mm, JJ/SJ/XJ is 28-30mm, and JJJ/XXJ For fruit diameters above 30mm, similar parameters can be found on the original import box label.

In the jargon of J, instead of pronouncing "jie", read "gou". Single gou, double gou and three gou are the standards for distinguishing the quality of cherries. The more numbers of "J", the more cherries. The bigger the cherries are, the better the Sangou cherries are.
