i suggest you do some reading in the forums
your questions require long answers and all of that material has already been posted
not trying to be a dick, but just giving you some advice
most experienced growers won't answer your questions IMO
here is a good post about harvesting, which was one of your questions

here u go man, this will help, just watch/read some of these. https://www.rollitup.org/search.php?searchid=6230492
but i wont just leave ya hangin.....u can tell when plants are ready to hartvest 100% by getting a magnifying scope (can be picked up at wal mart, radio shack or here http://www.amazon.com/SE-Mini-Pocket-Microscope-100x/dp/B001878S7G/ref=pd_sbs_sg_2 check the price on that scope!) when u get the scope u look at the trichomes on the buds (the little resin sacs) if they are mostly cloudy your good to go. mostly clear wait a week or 2. just keep an eye on those trich's w/ uir scope and wait for mostly cloudy to amber colored trichomes. if this helped ya give me a rep by pressing the little scales up at the top right of my post!

When should I harvest my plants?
When should I harvest my plants?
The 30X and 100X lighted magnifier are tools everyone serious about harvest timing should have. They make it easy to monitor the resin development process. After seeing 400X images of resin glands, I decided to also buy the 100X magnifier. It supplies a superior view, providing an enhanced perspective of resin gland condition and development.
I recommend buying the 30X model first and if you would like to expand your analytical capabilities, buy the 100X model. They both allow for a much closer inspection of the clarity, color and condition of the resin glands, which should be swollen and unbroken while remaining transparent and slightly amber, if at all, at the peak of ripeness. Some prefer harvesting earlier, as THC degrades to more sedative cannabinoids as the glands ripen.
Harvest timing is a matter of personal preference. When the glandular trichomes are clear with very little, if any coloration, THC levels are at their peak with CBD and CBN both at levels that will not overly influence the THC with their sedative effects. Some prefer more overwhelming narcotic type effects, allowing the resin glands to cloud and begin to amber or darken to increase overall cannabinoid content. The resin glands appear and therefore will mature at different times. A compromise is made when determining the desired overall maturity level to harvest. It depends on the growers preference in effect and palate.
