On HP I waited 6 months before seeing .01 in adsense but it picked up, by the first year (where I benchmark the money should start pouring in if you pour your heart and soul into each article and monetize correctly) I was making 100.00 a month checks... by year two 300.00 a month, by 3 let's just say 3 and 4 were GREAT years, but year 4 didn't last- (being banned and all) but next year march, it's on. You'll get there, it's a waiting game (hurry up and wait?)
