My wife arrived in the USA in mid July on a CR-1 visa. How long will it take to get her green card mailed to her. Do e need to do anything to get it?
USCIS can take up to 30 days or more to issue the card.
Your passport should have I-551 stamp, this makes passport act as a temp green-card.
Give it some time and then schedule an infopass and ask about it.

It took 7 weeks for my husband to receive anything. But it does arrive in the mail, so you just have to wait. If it's been more than 7-8 weeks, call them or make an infopass appointment to find out what happened. But for now she's all good with the I-551 stamp she received at POE.
