The more yellow you use, the more flexible it remains. Maybe that's the case here too?
I usually use about 2/5 yellow with 3/5 blue to get it to harden that little bit more.
And I've used greenstuff that has been near to a decade old and it still works just fine. But I do store it in an airtight, dark container all the time, in a drawer that makes for a reasonably cool and temperature stable environment...
