Tropical Fish Tank Ornaments and Wood? WHAT to look out for? Resin? Polyester? SAFE?

I’ve bought my very first ever fish tank. i have read up lots and lots on tropical fish tank. But some things are contradicting.
What kind of fake plants and ornaments can i put in the tank that wont give out ‘toxic’ substances or dye release.
I’ve seen lots of things that say "resin" or "polyester resin". are these safe?
I will put in a few real plants and wood which i’ll go to a an aquarium shop and buy.
I want to set up the tank ASAP so i can wait about 4 weeks before i introduce the fish.

How to cycle a fish tank?

About 3 years ago I got a 10 gallon fish tank, and it hasn’t been used since then. Please could someone who has experience with cycling tanks (I don’t even know what ‘cycling’ a tank means >_<) tell me… how to? I would like to have a tropical fish tank but 3 years ago I didn’t do it properly and my fish unfortunately died. Is there a particular way I have to cycle the tank because it is old? And what equipment do I need because I think I’m missing some parts? I tried searching google but I still really didn’t get it. Basically, I have no experience whatsoever about fish. I would write down some of the parts that I found with the tank but… I don’t know what they’re called. Oh and my tank is really dirty too and has a bit of mould, will this harm the fish? Will it be ok if I just give it a good clean?? Thanks so much if you can help!!
