Keeping everywhere it green before mastering?

I turn down the volume in the master to green before mastering. My question is that do I also need to turn to green in the machines and in the mixer or the master is enough?

If it sounds OK it is OK. The reason for keeping the mastering in the green is to allow the compressors and limitors to have plenty of headroom to play with in mastering. Export your song and a 24bit WAV for mastering to make sure its got the best resolution to play with and all should be fine.
