    yes stagger them, it limits the stress points on the joins.

    'No More Ply' on old floorboards...

    definitely DON'T put the screws in when the adhesive has set, it needs to be screwed down while the adhesive is still wet...

    'No More Ply' on old floorboards...

    just tiled this floor, onto floorboards that were worse than yours using nmp... as it's all I could get during lockdown , and using the exact method I mention in my last post. the tiles were stuck down using bal single part fast flex, and grouted with bal wide joint grout with GT1 admix.

    'No More Ply' on old floorboards...

    can't say I'm a fan of nmp, brittle crap imo, hardie board is much better, but as you already have it I would ditch there adhesive and stick it down with tile adhesive ( not ready mixed) use a 10mm trowel and 25mm screws this should take up the bow in the floor boards.
