Default Plant cycling a tank... or pond.

Aquarium Chemistry

I remember some time ago about plant cycling a tank, I assume one would
plant a tank heavily and as some pieces die and decompose a cycle can be
started? Thus when a fish is added the cycle picks up speed quickly to
compensate? Any comments or recollections on that? ~ jan
