From nymph to adult takes 6ish months. So you probably have 2-3 months before you see babies.

Make sure they stay above 70° or they won't breed at all.

What do you guys think about feeding schedule for t's? Do you guys set period? Or just random feed

I have 44 tarantulas. I feed every Sunday. I try to keep track of who ate and who molted so that's just the easiest way to do it. I wasn't as organized back when I had less.

Tarantulas themselves don't care either way.

With 300-400, I feed when I can :p
1.5" or smaller is once a week
1.5" or bigger I go by the size of their abdomen. Nice and plump I'll skip a week.

Temps and prey items will play into this.
