There is a really fun interesting story at the KC Beer Blog about making Boulevard Nutcracker.
Honestly, I've never even heard the term "Green Hopping" before. There is a decent article on it here. (FYI: the Beaujolais nouveau reference in the article is stupid. Nouveau is terrible hurry-up wine. It is closer to using freshly picked spices in a recipe)
It seems that hops spoil within a day or two if not dried after picking. Wet Hopping must be done very soon after harvest.
