Hi Chava,
You didn't mentioned what controller you are using to manage these APs. Could you confirm the controller name and version running on it.
All Ruckus controllers support mesh feature and once it is enabled on controller, any AP provisioning with controller will get the mesh SSID configured automatically.
You don't need multiple mesh SSID as single SSID will be used by all the Root APs(RAPs) and Mesh APs (Maps).
You should not considering going beyond two mesh hops because with each mesh hope, throughput will degrade by half than the last mesh/root throughput.
For example: AP1 (Root AP/RAP/Wired AP) <<
>> AP2 (Mesh AP/MAP) <<> AP3 (MAP) <<> AP4 (MAP)...and so on.
