Didn't have Hop Pellets - so I got whole ones?

Hi Folks,

About to do the Fruit Salad adaptation of the Coopers APA as recommended on their site.

You've to make a hop infusion using:
25g Cascade hop pellets
25g Amarillo hop pellets

My LHBS didn't have any pellets so I got whole leaf. Can I still do this? Will I need more or less than 25g of the pellet?

More, alternatively to get all the goodness out wizz them up in a blender first.
In or near Norwich? Interested in meeting up monthly to talk and drink beer? PM me for details.
