A Cycling Period?



Hello,

I am beginning to set up a 55-gal. tank and I've heard various reports of 
when it's safe to put fish in.  Does the tank need to "cycle" for a few weeks 
with the plants in before it's safe to have fish?  Or are there enough 
bacteria on the plants themselves to support a limited amount of fish right 
away?
Thanks for any help,
~Katie
