Removing elasticsearch logs

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

I finally got the logstash - elasticsearch pipeline to work and able to
send json packets to logstash and into elasticsearch viewable in kibana.
What I am concerned about is the disk space that will be used for all these
messages? Is there way to clear these up and where would I find it? Perhaps
I could create a task to regularly clean the folder every 7 days.
Appreciate responses.

I found some suggestions on using plugin/head to view node status:
localhost:9200/_plugin/head/
and right there I can see the cluster health:read (3,2)
still not sure how to delete all old log messages

thanks. Will look into that. Do you perhaps know where the directory is
that stores all these messages or log files
