Could some one explain to a novice like myself what Putatives are and how they work, compared to the others, and what all these P numbers signify…and the differences. Thanks.

The putatives offered here are experimental molecules that are hypothesized to have pheromone properties. There’s very little documentation on most of the putatives, as AD releases them without any information on what any of them do..or without any guarantee they’ll do anything at all. The only real documentation on these molecules can be found by searching the feedback posted by users who have experimented with them.
the p stands for putative and the number is just the number of that putative to identify it like p84 stands for putative 84
