Is this all correct? Any other tips/ tricks I could do? This is beginning to make sense I think.

Both are technically "right," but sticking mostly with harmonic minor sounds more interesting to my ear. Playing E harmonic minor over a C-chord is trickier than natural minor, but it can be really cool if you know how to use the dissonance between the G and the F-sharp or the E and the D-sharp. Once you get down to this point, the easiest thing to do is just play and let your ear figure out what you personally like.
