Do you have a green thumb?
I don't think I have a green thumb. Although I have a garden in my house now, there are totally artificial grasses in my garden since I have no time to maintain that. If I grow something in my garden, I would choose a tomato. As a matter of fact, I prefer fruits, but they seem to difficult to grow for beginner.

This is a small detail, but titles in English have their own capitalization rules different from normal sentences

1. While I think “grasses” is a word, it is rarely used in English. When referring to plural grass, we just say “grass”.
2. The word “totally” feels a bit odd and confusing here, so I’d just remove it
3. I understand what you mean with the end of your sentence, but I’d make it more specific/clear
If I could grow something in my garden, I would choose a tomatoes.
1. Since this is a hypothetical, you need to use the conditional tense
2. “A tomato” sounds weird, as tomatoes normally grow in bunches

Very good! Some small errors, but entirely understandable and very good!

Thank you very much for your careful correction.
It's still difficult to distinguish between plural and singular forms.
I'd like to believe that I've conveyed what I wanted to say, but my expression is still far from natural.

Of course! And yeah, English has a ton of dumb exceptions with plural words. It’s kinda just something you gotta memorize. And I think you did, I understood what you wrote really well

How do you have a garden inside your house? Maybe you mean "at your house?"

Couple of technical corrections.

Although Imy house now haves a garden in my house now,it, the grasses in there are totally artificial grasses in my garden, since I have no time to maintain thait.
This is a more natural rephrasing of the same idea.
If I were to grow something in my garden, I would choose agrow tomatoes.
"were to grow" expresses better the thought that you aren't growing tomatoes now, but you are considering the idea.
As a matter of fact, I preferwould rather grow fruits, but they seem to be difficult to grow for beginners.

Regarding choices on what to grow: it really depends on the climate, unless you can manage to build a hothouse (which is a significant expense in itself). You should consult your local agricultural extension office for guidance. Good luck!

To have a garden IN your house means literally inside your house there is a garden - meaning the ground is grass, stones, etc. For plants that are inside the house, we'd say something like, "I have a lot of houseplants"
I now have a house with a garden = you have (at some point) moved into a house which (already) has a garden
Now my house has a garden = you lived in this house, and later, you created a garden to add to it
If I groew something in my garden, I would choose a tomatoes.
This hypothetical structure needs past tense (grew)
Alternative: If I were to grow something... I would... <= here, "were" is the past tense word

Great job.
Strawberries are very easy for beginners. Fruit trees are the easiest of all, but that requires the investment of waiting years for the trees to mature!
