The minimum-lenght property is set by default at 2.0 (staff spaces),
see:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.14/Documentation/internals/hairpin

In the second bar of your example, setting it to #5, it's still too
short, because you added dynamics as well (ppp and fz). If you want the
same lenght of the first hairpin you should increase the minimum-lenght
till #11 - or something like this.

Of course this will increase also the distance between the first two
notes.
