  I just bought a theme on Theme Forest. I tried to FTP, but now I see where WP says I can’t use it. Any help or documentation would be appreciated.

  I’m afraid you will have to get a refund as you can’t use that theme on a free hsoted WordPress.com blog.

  The only themes we can use on free hosted WordPress.com blogs are found here > Appearance > Themes and there are 200 of them
  see also > http://theme.wordpress.com/

  There is no FTP access to free hosted WordPress.COM blogs and we cannot install plugins, upload third-party themes or edit templates or themes. Those found on the internet are for WordPress.ORG installs which run on different software.

  There is no upgrade you can purchase from WordPress.com that changes anything stated here http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/ and restated again here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/#important-notes-before-upgrading and restated again here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/#frequently-asked-questions
