1) Do you have to own the planet to terraform it?

No.

2) Can the planet still have a catching mass driver, but one that isnt rated for the speed being sent at it?

IIRC terraforming is done by the minerals that are not caught by the MD so if the target planets MD is underrated than yes packets will still terraform.
This is of course less effective terraforming, you want as much minerals hitting the planet to get a higher chance on terra.

3) Which mineral type of packet affects which of the ranges for hab? Germ = Rad? Bor = Temp? Iron = Grav?

Correct.

4) What is the optimum speeds/risks for launching these packets at my poor likkle worlds.

Launch the packets before you colonize. Wink
You will want the highest chance on terra, that means worst case for your colonists ...

I'm not an expert with PP, only used it once in a duel, liked it but haven't come across a game yet in which I would take a PP ...
