Hey thanks for posting and the +1! So let's look at the cards you suggested.
1.) Glimpse of Nature- seems ok, I'll have to fuck around with it a bit to see if I like it, and worth cutting for something else. It seems ok though as is.
2.) Ghostly Prison When I first thought about this deck, I was gonna go that route, but I'm not a fan of it, unless I stack other cards in there to go with it.
3.) Heartbeat of Spring- is definitely better to drop after I wrath the lands. If I cataclysm it's kinda useless, cause Karametra is the enchantment I keep. It's not bad, I'll look into it. I do agree with the thought process.
4.) Nature's Will- I didn't think of it, it's like feast and famine, but for all creatures... hmm not bad. I'll try this out, not sure what to cut doe... hmm I have an idea.
5.) Budoka Gardener- lol I actually like his second ability more, and with cards like overun, or Triumph of the Hordes. I don't really get a lot of lands in hand cause of how much karametra deck thins.
6.) Leatherback Baloth- lol I can respect the 4/5 3 mana beast beater. Though yes lol not for this deck.
7.) Sachi, Daughter of Seshiro- Only 2 other shamans in the deck, and as she is, a 4 drop dork.. for a 4 spot there's much better cards. Seems tech though in some decks
8.) Feast of Worms- lol nah to slow, and not powerful enough to make use of cutting other cards
9.) The staffs are cute, but not worth in this deck. I don't care about life really, and not abusing anything to make it worthwhile. It's also 3 mana .... >.> if it was 2 mana or 1 mana maybe. I could understand it, but then it'd be a lot stronger, and still I might not play it.
10.) Sakiko, Mother of Summer- I already have a lot of ramp, and in a 6 drop spot, it's not worth. I want threats at a 6 drop spot. Something that gets me in amazing position to win, or control the board with, or something stronger than a 3/3 and has better utility. See Sun Titan.
11.) Same as the staffs, just not good.
Also you will still be put in the contest lol. You took the time to comment and look over and +1.

Like I said, I knew that most of the cards weren't really essential, just wanted to give you some more ideas. :)
Concerning contest, no really, I would have commented if you had mentioned me even if it weren't a contest. Plus, I probably wouldn't use them. I'm fine with not being entered, it increases everyone else's chances, and they seem to want them, so... Thanks again, but I really don't need to be entered.

White is my splash color, so I'm not playing a lot of them. I gotta play as many plains as possible

Rofellos, Llanowar Emissary should be pretty good. he works well and isn't too expensive. He effectively doubles your forests early game. his double green might make him a little harder to play really early, but it's not too bad. the only downside is his 1 toughness. he is pretty wimpy, but if you can keep him alive, he can be a powerhouse.
Gavony Township might be able to buff up some stuff.
you might want to put Icatian Store in there for some more white ramp.
Gyre Sage could help out, too.
for the most part, I don't know that much about EDH, so not too sure what is great or not in the format. I mostly just play it casually.

These are a few cards i would recommend. More ramp and because Genesis Wave. Most of the ramp spells are good for the simple fact that they get you more basics for minimal cost to you. Sac a creature is meh and cards like Harrow sac a land for 2 lands is pretty damn good.
Now for land destruction... out side of Karn, Silver Golem + Mycosynth Lattice effects or Mycosynth Lattice + Darksteel Forge + Austere Command / Nevinyrral's Disk your pretty much set. There are a few other way but not sure how useful they would be since it would take away from your current theme. But there are ways to turn lands to creatures and with board wipes and such you can just kill them rather then destroy lands you now have a second option..... cant remember card that turns all lands into creatures but its a green card.... with Avacyn, Angel of Hope its doesnt hurt you and gives you more beaters.
Creatures... Seedborn Muse is amazing. just get a way to have flash and your set its not to hard with what is out there but again would take up a spot that you might want for something else.
Hope this was helpful to you if you have any questions let me know. But so far the deck looks fun and +1 to you.

@Pro_Noob Rofellos, Llanowar Emissary is banned in commander.
@Jeggard The card you are thinking of is Life and Limb. It pairs well with Earth Surge.

Whitemane Lion is exceedingly good when Karametra is out, you can spend two mana and get a land. Also can save your creatures from removal.
I would also recommend Overwhelming Stampede, it's a cheap card that can win games if it resolves. Sometimes more deadly than Craterhoof Behemoth

Much commander, very EDH!
... I don't play commander, so I have know idea what I am saying... But Genesis Hydra or Hydra Broodmaster could make a good use of all that land you are producing. :) Cheers.

Um... should take out the fetch dual lands... probably: flooded strand, Marsh flats, Verdant Catacombs, Wooded Foothills (not linking them so they don't get suggested). I mean... there's nothing illegal about them it just doesn't make sense to me to pay life for a standard land? Maybe if you had Terravore in there?

With fetch lands, crucible, and azuza, exploration, etc it's all apart of ramp, as well as with Knight of the Reliquary it all has synergy. This deck runs so much smoother because of it. Losing 1 health in edh isn't really anything here and there. I go down to 5 a lot just to win it. Doesn't matter.
The whole point they are in here, is literally to deck thin faster so I can draw into better things, or even Genesis Wave for good threats. Nothing saddens me when I hit a genesis wave, a bunch of lands... and no vorin. It's all in there for that reason. Also this deck isn't about land destruction, nor have enough of it, to warrant putting him in there. He offers no utility, and is just stompy creature (in the right deck, but in this deck he's useless).
You should gold fish the deck, and make sure you have the deck list in the back round so you can see what cards to go for from tutors and such. I'm actually thinking of adding more tutors, to make this deck even more streamlined. I digress... this deck is trying to go off as soon as it can, health is a resource, so why not use it? I play a lot of black so playing low health is pretty common for me. You just have to be smart about it. This deck wants to go off on turn 6-8

I made a similar deck just for fun. Finally I'm not sure it's my type of deck, but like Temur Sabertooth I think Roaring Primadox is great to recast creatures (and like other people said, Whitemane Lion). Maybe even Jeskai Barricade... One that I liked to cast ofen was Brutalizer Exarch.
Possible good Landfall creatures includes Sporemound or Grazing Gladehart. With all the lands you will get, maybe something like Mirror Entity could be nice. And finally, because it's a creature, I think Kami of Ancient Law can be interesting. It's like an enchantment removal that could also get you a land (with Karametra in play).
These are my thoughts, my deck used to look like this. I think I will use some cards in other decks, but your deck seems really cool.

I love Aluren + any recurssion creature like Kor Skyfisher or Fleetfoot Panther. Lets you dump all your forests and plains on the field! I also like running Panglacial Wurm and recurring it with Mistveil Plains just cuz its fun to drop a 9/5 trample beater out of nowhere.

I wish I could, but sadly I can't. It's got a blue in it's color identity. So it's illegal to play in the deck.
