For smaller page specific changes like that I use the WordPress body class feature.

<body <?php body_class(); ?>>

That dynamically adds classes to the body based on what type of page you’re on. As an example, when on the home page the body tag will get a class of “home” (among others), while on a single post page it will get a class of “single”.

So what you can do with that is just below where you call your background in the css add a new line using the class specific to the home page with the different background.

If you’re body has the background just use this:

.home {
background: stuff;
}

Or if your background is on say a wrapper you could use this:

.home .wrapper {
background: stuff;
}
