The harder the pencil, the less grain will go on the paper, hence the lighter it is.
The softer the thicker, more grain and tonalities are easier possible. You have more possibilities and "personality" with softer grain.
Hard pencils can be used for do a quick sketch of what you want to draw and then go over to the heavier ones.
Most beginers always draw too light, make a statement instead - you a bloddy black marker pen, you learn to draw better, none of that repetative "ify" lines.

do endless masturbational window wiper moves slowly building up the tonality.
