Cycling tank before putting plants in?

[lionfish1991]

Do you need to cycle a tank before you put plants in? Or can they survive the cycle.

Plants actually help speed up the "cycle" process, or in many cases negate a cycle (if heavily planted). So you have the green and are encouraged to place plants in immediately from day one.
