Thanks for thinking of us! I'm sure I speak for many of us when I say that making a viv is half the fun no matter what you house in it! It sounds like a great setup. You were right in putting branches and rocks in the oven, the plants are going to be a bit trickier. I would recommend setting up the viv w/ the plants and everything except the snake and let it live for a while.
This time is gonna help b/c you can make sure that the waterfall isn't splashing too high or cloging with plant matter. You'll also be able to see bugs (if there are any) start moving around and trying to getting comfy and that's when you can squish them. Some people say that waiting a month is good, but I think 2 weeks is the longest I've ever been able to wait. Basically its making sure that the tank is working well before introducing your snake to avoid any stress.
Post pictures when your done! Good luck!
