Default Blueberry growing!

Hello I'm new here,

I'm a chilli grower and I thought I should also grow Blueberries as buying them from the supermarket is expensive and they don't have as much of their useful nutrients and vitamins as opposed to being freshly picked and eaten straight.
I'm interested in growing the variety 'Sunshine Blue' as it's compact and is suited for container growth but other varieties such as 'Bluecrop' also catch my eye. I'll be buying online from Blackmoor Nurseries.
Do Blueberries crop in their first year? They advertise the plants in 1l pots as 1 year old so they would have a thick main branch?

Any help regarding Blueberry growing and more specifically Blueberry growing, would be great.

Thanks
