OSB spacing?

Never used OSB before. Working on a project and about to that stage. Everything I read and the material itself says 1/8” spacing. The invoice from the lumber yard has a line note below the OSB that says 1/4” spacing.
Is that a standard spacing for high moisture/humidity climates?

If its for roof decking and you're not sure buy some spacer clips and use them. It will be uniform and correct

Yeah, I found the 1/4” note odd. Of course they were closed For the Holiday weekend yesterday and I’m guessing not opening until Tuesday. I did finally find somewhere online suggest “up to 1/4” if the boards have not acclimated “ to the humidity.
Aside from that 99% of all info I come up with says 1/8.

1/8 is sufficient but if you’re doing a roof get the clips.
