Green cards come with residency and physical presence requirements. Leaving the US for more than 6 months gets complicated. Making frequent trips back to appear to be a resident will eventually be called out.

Not the OP, but you need to reside for at least 183 days a year to keep your immigration status.

Not OP. It gets tricky to hold on to it if you're not in the country for at least 6 months a year.
