Is that a good start or I should get more for a growing base

It's a start. Make sure just to trim the top, it goes faster that way.

Yes it is a great start... Just get some light blocks and you can get a herm farm going. That is all I started with and now I have over 100 plants growing at once and have several stacks of seeds.

He's not quite ready for the Nether if he's still using stone tools, methinks. However, yes, light blocks would allow a good hemp farm.

What I did when I started a new world when I started using BTW was get ~5-8 seeds or something, make a small farm, and then started doing my general things what people do when they've started in a new world, get settled etc, while you do that, the hemp will grow, and make a habit out of only punching off the top block, like with sugar cane. By the time I decided to make a new and bigger farm, I had more then a stack of extra seeds to get going :)

The way I made my first farm was simply an extra door outside my house, surround it by fences, placed a water area in the middle, and off I went :)

Says who? But you do have a point, although he does have iron tools. You only need a bucket and a lake of lava to get a portal. (By the way, peaceful is great the first time you go in, those ghast are ***.)
