× Different types of plans like fruits, flowers as well as some decorative plants.

✓ Different types of plants like fruits, flowers as well as some decorative plants.

The word 'plans' is incorrect here; it should be 'plants' to refer to living vegetation. This is a singular and plural issue where the wrong plural form was used.

× It keeps environment clean and beautiful.

✓ It keeps the environment clean and beautiful.

The noun 'environment' requires the definite article 'the' before it, and 'keeps' is correct as the subject is singular. This is related to article usage and singular/plural agreement.

× Well, when I was young I used to low gardening a lot.

✓ Well, when I was young I used to love gardening a lot.

The word 'low' is a typo and should be 'love'. Also, 'gardening' is correctly used as a gerund after 'love'. This is a verb + -ing form issue due to a typo.

× Whenever my father was a watering the plants, I always kept myself busy with him.

✓ Whenever my father was watering the plants, I always kept myself busy with him.

The article 'a' before 'watering' is incorrect and should be removed. 'Watering' here is a present participle used as part of the past continuous tense. This is an incorrect use of prepositions/articles issue.

× I really enjoy doing it when I was young.

✓ I really enjoyed doing it when I was young.

The verb 'enjoy' should be in the past tense 'enjoyed' to match the past time reference 'when I was young'. This is a past tense issue.

× I have grown a plant of rose, coriander and mint as well as fenu Greek.

✓ I have grown plants of rose, coriander, mint, as well as fenugreek.

'A plant of rose, coriander and mint' is incorrect because multiple plants are mentioned. It should be plural 'plants'. Also, 'fenu Greek' is corrected to 'fenugreek'. This is a singular and plural issue and spelling correction.

× Well I don't have much idea about growing up lunch but yes I have seen my father doing it so many times.

✓ Well, I don't have much idea about growing plants but yes, I have seen my father doing it so many times.

The phrase 'growing up lunch' is incorrect; it should be 'growing plants'. 'Growing up' is a phrasal verb meaning to mature, which is not appropriate here. This is an incorrect use of prepositions and phrase issue.

× So he used to bring seeds of the plants first, then after removing some soil he placed that seeds in it and covered it with the sand and then water it regularly.

✓ So he used to bring seeds of the plants first, then after removing some soil he placed those seeds in it, covered it with sand, and then watered it regularly.

The verb 'water' should be in past tense 'watered' to maintain past tense consistency. Also, 'that seeds' should be 'those seeds' (pronoun issue). 'The sand' should be 'sand' without article. This is a past tense and pronoun issue.

× Also add some fertilizers.

✓ He also added some fertilizers.

The sentence lacks a subject and verb tense consistency. Adding 'He' and changing 'add' to 'added' fits the past tense narrative. This is a sentence structure and tense issue.

× Yes, Chinese people did used to send plans as a gift.

✓ Yes, Chinese people used to send plants as gifts.

The phrase 'did used to' is incorrect; it should be 'used to'. Also, 'plans' should be 'plants', and 'a gift' should be plural 'gifts' to match 'plants'. This is a past tense and singular/plural issue.

× I think plant is also a living beings.

✓ I think plants are also living beings.

'Plant' should be plural 'plants' to match 'living beings' which is plural. Also, 'is' should be 'are' for plural subject. This is a singular and plural issue and subject-verb agreement.

× They also live as we live.

✓ They also live as we do.

Adding 'do' at the end makes the sentence grammatically complete and correct. This is a sentence structure issue.

× So it's a gift which is very special and precious to somebody who is alone.

✓ So it's a gift which is very special and precious to somebody who is alone.

This sentence is grammatically correct; no correction needed.

× And it also keep themselves busy.

✓ And it also keeps them busy.

The verb 'keep' should be 'keeps' to agree with singular subject 'it'. 'Themselves' is incorrect reflexive pronoun here; 'them' is correct. This is a subject-verb agreement and pronoun usage issue.
