So i know i wanna have some plants in my new 29gal which i just started to do a fishless cycle on 4 days ago. I have many questions regarding this topic so bear with me cause i dont fully understand like i do some other things.
Right now i have black gravel in my tank along with a few decoration things and plan to get a piece or 2 of driftwood in the next couple days cause my ph is around 8.2 plus they look cool. My first question is should i wait for my tank to cycle before i add any plants in? Second is what all do i have to do to prepare my tank to add plants? like do i need dirt or can i plant em on the driftwood or what? also do i need fertilizer and if so how much and the same with CO2? which kind of light will i need? .... i figured id find some plants that i would like to get and some that are good for a begginer like me ... so this is probably the package i will get for a 30 gal

Is that a good thing to start of with? .... what else will i need to get to help maintain them? and anything else i forgot ... thanks ahead in advance guys
