Dry hopping with wet hops

Your thoughts please. Thank You.

throw them in 5x what you normally would. I brewed a fresh hop ipa at the beginning of September and it tastes great!

I'm doing Vinnie's Wet Hop Ale and he says to dry hop with wet hops.

there will be plenty of wild yeast on them if they arent briefly boiled first

Really? I never thought about that before. I guess they would have "stuff" on them, but I never boil dryhops.

So the wild yeast isn't on dried Hops? Reference?

Me either but this will be my first wet dry hop. That sounds strange...:cross:

I am reviving this thread so as not to start a new one. I have a Yooper's House Ale variation brewed yesterday with yeast from a one gallon ale. It is fermenting like crazy. I just picked a bunch of Casade and Centennial hops. If I use the wet hops to dry hop, will the Co2 from the active fermentation drive off the aromas? If I choose to wait a few days, should I dry the hops to avoid mildew? Should I throw them in now and the pick more next week and add them too?
