Conjecture 1: a(n) > 0 for any integer n > 138158.
We have verified this for n up to 2*10^6. Note that n*(2n+1) (n = 0,1,...) are the second hexagonal numbers (A014105).
Conjecture 2: Any integer n > 146858 can be written as the sum of three hexagonal numbers (A000384).
Conjecture 3: Any integer n > 33066 can be written as the sum of three pentagonal numbers (A000326).
Conjecture 4: Any integer n > 24036 can be written as the sum of three second pentagonal numbers (A005449).
Conjecture 5: Let N(1) = 114862, N(-1) = 166897, N(3) = 196987 and N(-3) = 273118. Then, for any r among 1, -1, 3 and -3, each integer n > N(r) can be written as x*(5x+r)/2 + y*(5y+r)/2 + z*(5z+r)/2 with x,y,z nonnegative integers.
We have verified Conjectures 2-5 for n up to 10^6.

EXAMPLE
a(223595) = 1 with 223595 = 95*(2*95+1) + 200*(2*200+1) + 250*(2*250+1).
a(290660) = 1 with 290660 = 136*(2*136+1) + 149*(2*149+1) + 323*(2*323+1).
