For hue mode, Photoshop explains it this way: Use the brightness and saturation of the base color and the hue of the mixed color to create the result color (the base color is the original color in the image). Regarding this model, I am afraid that very few people use it. You can find out by searching on Baidu. However, as a flagship image processing software, you wouldn’t just use a mode to top up the numbers, right? Its existence must have its profound purpose! Maybe many people have used this model inadvertently, and gradually forgot about it when they found that the results they obtained were incomprehensible. My story begins when the hue mixing mode encounters a pair of complementary colors... (Ten thousand words are omitted below)

Regardless of whether the correction result is correct or not, at least I found a way to completely remove the annoying green color, and only used one adjustment layer. The method is really quick and economical.
Here's how:
Use the color pipette to absorb a darker green color in the shadow of the image as the foreground color, and create a new layer to fill it.
CTRL+I inverts the fill layer, sets it to hue blending mode, and adjusts its opacity to 50%
The result is always questionable: Did it change things that shouldn't be changed? For example, I just wanted to turn green, but red and blue were also changed? But if you think about pulling the middle block towards magenta in the color balance tool, the trend of color change is also the same, and there is another advantage. According to the definition of hue mode, the brightness and saturation of the image do not change or The change is minimal, preserving the tone of the image. I feel so relieved! Okay. The story is over.
Postscript: When you need to neutralize a certain color, just take the brush directly, set it to hue mode, adjust the opacity, and apply it to the area that needs to be changed. Again: faster, cheaper...
For example, I often use it to remove red eyes, glaucoma, etc. Theoretically, copy a layer of the image and invert it, set it to the hue blending mode, and adjust the opacity to 50%, so the image will be gray. There is a slight error.
