Fill some water to more or less the level of the gravel and start planting. It will be harder to plant when you fill the water to the brim first.

By the way, what plants do u have in mind? Looks to me like a planted shrimp tank. Yes?
thanks for the advice, the wood was just placed in for fun. actually planned to get another one for the other corner and maybe a taller one.

How should i slope it? from the back downwards to the front?

Erm, no intention to keep shrimps but might just add a few if it goes well.
