I've used more than one bottle of RDL that had something which turned the reaction fluid green, or black, or some strange colors. I guessed that the green color was from a strange batch of RDL, and was incorrect.
now would the best thing bee to just add some more h2o and boil dow down, and start over?
No, just add your nonpolar solvent and extract. If you boil the fluid content down, you will just be back where you were.
