× So I'm trying to not grow and keep plants and flowers.
✓ So I'm trying not to grow or keep plants and flowers.
The negative form 'trying not to' should be followed by the base verb; avoid splitting 'to' and use 'trying not to' + verb. Also use 'or' to connect alternatives. Suggestion: 'I'm trying not to grow or keep...' improves fluency.
× Well, when I was a young I often cultivate a tomato plant.
✓ Well, when I was young I often cultivated a tomato plant.
Use 'when I was young' without 'a'. Also past habitual action requires past tense 'cultivated'. Japanese: '"a young"は不要で、過去の習慣を表すために動詞を過去形にする必要があります。'
× This is because I really love tomatoes since I was child.
✓ This is because I really have loved tomatoes since I was a child.
Use 'since' with a present perfect tense ('have loved') to indicate a period from past to present, and include the article 'a' before 'child'. Japanese: '"since"を使う場合は現在完了形が必要で、"a child"のように冠詞も必要です。'
× So to cultivate a lot of tomatoes and eat every single day I I tried to grow a tomato plant.
✓ So to cultivate a lot of tomatoes and eat them every single day I tried to grow a tomato plant.
Remove the duplicated 'I', use past tense 'tried' (already present), and include object 'them' for 'eat'. Japanese: '重複した"I"を削除し、"eat"の目的語を入れて意味を明確にします。'
× Actually I don't know much about growing plants but I do know umm 2 glow plants and flowers.
✓ Actually I don't know much about growing plants but I do know a little about plants and flowers.
Phrase '2 glow' is unclear; likely meant 'a little'. Use 'a little' to indicate limited knowledge. Japanese: '"2 glow"は意味が不明瞭で、ここでは"a little"が適切です。'
× It must need sunlight and regularly watering.
✓ They need sunlight and regular watering.
Use plural 'they' to refer to plants, use verb 'need' without 'must' here, and 'regular watering' (noun) rather than 'regularly watering' or use 'be watered regularly'. Japanese: '植物には複数形の代名詞"they"を使い、"regular watering"のように名詞句を使うのが自然です。'
× This helps them grow efficiency.
✓ This helps them grow efficiently.
Use the adverb 'efficiently' to modify the verb 'grow' rather than the adjective 'efficiency'. Japanese: '動詞を修飾する際は副詞を使います。"grow efficiently"が正しいです。'
× Well, to be honest, I don't really know about Chinese habits.
✓ Well, to be honest, I don't really know much about Chinese customs.
Use 'know much about' or 'know about' plus noun 'customs' rather than 'habits' for cultural practices; 'habits' is countable and sounds odd here. Japanese: '文化的習慣を表すには"customs"の方が自然で、"know much about"などの表現を使います。'
× Umm, but I do know Chinese people often grow vegetables and flowers.
✓ Umm, but I do know that Chinese people often grow vegetables and flowers.
Add conjunction 'that' to introduce the reported fact; it improves grammar and clarity. Japanese: '事実を導入する際に"that"を入れると文が自然になります。'
× This is because I, in my opinion, Chinese really loves plants and flowers.
✓ This is because, in my opinion, Chinese people really love plants and flowers.
Include 'people' after 'Chinese' and use plural verb 'love' for plural subject. Japanese: '"Chinese"の後に"people"を入れ、主語が複数の場合は動詞を三人称単数形にしないで複数形にします("love")。'
