so i know that this is mostly supposed to be used in secondary fermentation and also ive heard it doesnt like Hoppy stuff either, would it be wise to do a different brew with very minimal hop addition as a base and get that rocking and then Dry Hop it after ferm slows down? or is it just easier to brew the beer and pitch it in secondary and hope you didnt make it TOO hoppy?

First choice lambic hops.
Second choice no hops.
Above minimal hop levels it will stunt the blend flavors.
 
Lambic hops have very low alpha acid content.
IBU > 2 will often stop Lactobacillus from working.
Sour beer does not need hop bitterness, flavor or aroma.
