Is it better to use adjustment layers for color correcting and grading or should I NOT use them for that? Does it make a difference? Thank you for your help.

It is a perfectly good way to work for applying the same grading/corrections over a bunch of clips or a whole timeline.
To elaborate a little more: if you have specific corrections to do in particular clips, apply them directly to the clips; overal grading/looks, do it in an adjustment layer.
My preference is to use them. They fit in nicely with my workflow.
