Actually, I'd prefer relative Tuesday for both processes. Otherwise we'd eventually start on weekends...

First date is relative to month (4th Tuesday) and the following are relative to first (2 weeks later, etc). 

Specific dates make no sense to me.

I'd also say "at least N weeks", perhaps even also "at most N+M weeks". Having specific dates or non flexible time frames will cause people to complain on the list when things don't go according to plan, pointing out our documentation and saying, with reason, that we're not following it.
