Sometimes early in the morning , i had a greenish sputum . it is related to medical problem and why it's happen?

Greenish phlegm: It doesn't sound to be serious. At least you do not mention other associated problems or symptoms. I suspect it is due to some post-nasal drip and most likely represents some allergy or other upper airway irritation.
