× Uh, it give gives me positivity whenever I see them in the morning, I feel uh, fresh.

✓ Uh, it gives me positivity whenever I see them in the morning, I feel uh, fresh.

The verb 'give' should be in the third person singular present tense 'gives' to agree with the singular subject 'it'. The original sentence incorrectly uses 'give gives', which is redundant and grammatically incorrect.

× some are my kitchen.

✓ some are in my kitchen.

The preposition 'in' is required to indicate location. Saying 'some are my kitchen' is incorrect because it lacks the preposition that shows where the plants are.

× I because, uh, it is the, there is a myth behind the growth of the, this plant that, uh, that in which a home, this plant grow and money is automatically grow, uh, in this house.

✓ Because, uh, there is a myth behind the growth of this plant that in a home where this plant grows, money automatically grows, uh, in this house.

The original sentence has confusing pronoun and article usage, making it unclear. 'I because' is incorrect; 'Because' should start the sentence. 'That in which a home' is awkward; 'in a home where' is clearer. Also, 'this plant grow' should be 'this plant grows' to agree with the singular subject.

× this plant grow and money is automatically grow, uh, in this house.

✓ this plant grows and money automatically grows, uh, in this house.

The verbs 'grow' should be in the third person singular present tense 'grows' to agree with singular subjects 'plant' and 'money'. Also, 'is automatically grow' is incorrect; it should be 'automatically grows'.

× Yes, I knew something about growing plant that if we want to grow a plant we need see good seeds and good fertilizer and in and we should take care this planted time to time.

✓ Yes, I know something about growing plants: if we want to grow a plant, we need to see good seeds and good fertilizer, and we should take care of this plant from time to time.

The verb 'knew' is past tense but the context suggests present knowledge, so 'know' is correct. 'Growing plant' should be plural 'growing plants'. 'Need see' is missing 'to' and should be 'need to see'. 'Take care this planted' is incorrect; it should be 'take care of this plant'. 'Time to time' should be 'from time to time'.

× and we should take care this planted time to time.

✓ and we should take care of this plant from time to time.

The verb 'take care' requires the preposition 'of' before the object. Also, 'planted' is incorrect here; the noun 'plant' is needed. 'Time to time' is an incomplete phrase; the correct expression is 'from time to time'.

× Actually I do not familiar with the Chinese culture, so I do not know about how Chinese people kiss and belongs as a gift.

✓ Actually, I am not familiar with Chinese culture, so I do not know about how Chinese people give plants as gifts.

The phrase 'I do not familiar' is incorrect; it should be 'I am not familiar'. 'Kiss and belongs' seems to be a mishearing or typo; likely intended 'give plants'. Also, 'the Chinese culture' can be simplified to 'Chinese culture'.

× But in my culture I do not send send plants as a gift.

✓ But in my culture, I do not send plants as gifts.

The verb 'send' is in present tense, which is appropriate here. The original sentence has a repeated word 'send send' which is a typographical error. Also, 'as a gift' should be plural 'as gifts' to match 'plants'.
