Your first 50 reeds will basically be attempting to tie on correctly and learning knife technique as you figure out how to scrape in the right spots and not ruin your reed blank. At some point, you'll get one that'll make a sound. Getting one that actually sounds good is a whole different matter. You should probably buy some reeds when you buy your oboe. You definitely don't want to be playing on your own reeds when you begin learning the oboe. I figured out the oboe easily enough on my own and did so for over a year without instruction.... figuring out the reeds, however, has taken me hours and hours with a teacher and hundreds of hours by myself working on it, and it's still a struggle for me to make a reed that is capable of working at the level that I need it to. My reedmaking technique is still far behind my playing technique. Don't fuss with reeds until you've gotten a good hang of the instrument first.
