 Looks Great man, I'm pretty new to the planted tank thing, My LFS told me i couldn't plant anything until my tank was completely cycled, I guess this is not the case?

It really depends on the plant. All the plants in that tank should handle fine (except maybe the stargrass and repens) You really don't need to wait though. Since I used dirt though, I did my hardscape, and filled with water for 3 days and did day to day water changes to get rid of the excess nutrients in the dirt. Then I drained like 95% and put plants in.

Surprised people actually buy rocks and driftwood from stores when you can just got out and find it on a river bank or stream or lake.

I put what ever I bring home in boiling water to kill any bacteria or anything that would harm my fish. Then use dish scrub pads or sponges from the store to clean them.
