According to Genesis 1, plants were created on the third day; only later, on the sixth day, were humans created. But not according to Genesis 2. There we are told that “the LORD God formed man from the dust of the ground” before there were any plants or herbs on the earth (2:4, 7).

Go for it, Huggy.
How is this not a contradiction?
On the 6th day God made man in his image which is spirit, he later formed a body for man to inhabit out of the dust of the earth.
Job 38:4-7
Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding. Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it? Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof; When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
Morning stars reference angels, and the sons of God are men.
Note it states ALL the sons of God were there at the beginning.
Your spirit wasn't created at the moment of your birth, your spirit was created back when God formed man in his image, the body only houses the spirit.
The bible makes it clear that when we leave this body we go to inhabit another body, therefore making the body and spirit two completely separate things, and therefor not a contradiction for one to be made before the other.
For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. - 2 Corinthians 5:1
Satisfied?
What's that got to do with plants?
