Hi folks. Currently I have a jasmine IPA in the carboy, dry-hopping and it is time to move it off the hops before it gets too grassy-tasting. Ideally, I would move it straight into bottles as most of the secondary fermentation is complete. However I'm getting a bubble out of my carboy every 28-35 seconds. How should I factor this if I bottle directly? How much sugar would you prime with, seeing as it will auto-carbonate some of it? Should I prime at all?
The batch has been fermenting for almost two weeks now, with a Wyeast 1056. Unfortunately no hydrometer. If I must, I can put it into a tertiary carboy, but my setup would have some oxygen exposure that way, so if possible I would really prefer to go straight to bottle.
Advice from experience? Normally I would wait it out but the hops have got to go.

edit: Crisis averted, I think, I think I'm opting to wait it out and let the hops do their thing.
