× I keep plants at my home and I borrow some plants from my friends nursery and I put them in my home and I give them a water on daily basis.

✓ I keep plants at my home and I borrow some plants from my friend's nursery and I put them in my home and I give them water on a daily basis.

The phrase 'friends nursery' needs a possessive apostrophe to become 'friend's nursery' to show ownership. Also, 'a water' is incorrect because 'water' is an uncountable noun and does not need an article here. Additionally, 'on daily basis' requires the article 'a' to become 'on a daily basis'. These corrections improve the sentence's grammatical accuracy.

× There are many different kind of plants that I grow.

✓ There are many different kinds of plants that I grow.

The phrase 'many different kind' is incorrect because 'many' requires a plural noun. Therefore, 'kind' should be pluralized to 'kinds'. Also, 'kind of plants' should be 'kinds of plants' to maintain subject-verb agreement and correct plural usage.

× When I was young. I I grow money plant and some sunflowers.

✓ When I was young, I grew money plants and some sunflowers.

The verb 'grow' should be in the past tense 'grew' to match the past time reference 'When I was young'. Also, 'money plant' should be pluralized to 'money plants' to indicate more than one plant, consistent with the context.

× Growing a plant is a very good thing for your home and you can grow plants anywhere because plants give you oxygen and these are very important for us to survive.

✓ Growing plants is a very good thing for your home and you can grow plants anywhere because plants give you oxygen and they are very important for us to survive.

The phrase 'Growing a plant' is less natural than 'Growing plants' when speaking generally. Also, 'these are very important' is better replaced with 'they are very important' to refer back to 'plants' clearly. These changes improve clarity and naturalness.

× I think everyone should have to grow a plant in their life.

✓ I think everyone should grow a plant in their life.

The phrase 'should have to' is redundant and incorrect here. 'Should' alone expresses obligation or recommendation. Therefore, 'should grow' is the correct form. This correction simplifies the sentence and makes it grammatically correct.

× Yes, Chinese people send plant as a gift.

✓ Yes, Chinese people send plants as gifts.

The noun 'plant' should be pluralized to 'plants' because it refers to the general practice of sending more than one plant. Similarly, 'gift' should be pluralized to 'gifts' to match the plural subject and verb. This correction ensures subject-verb and noun agreement.

× One of my friend tells me that he's a Chinese friend send a plant to him as a gift.

✓ One of my friends told me that his Chinese friend sent a plant to him as a gift.

'One of my friend' should be 'One of my friends' because 'one of' requires a plural noun. The verb 'tells' should be in past tense 'told' to maintain tense consistency. 'He's a Chinese friend send' is incorrect; it should be 'his Chinese friend sent' to show possession and past tense. These corrections improve pronoun use and verb tense consistency.
