Decline visit by daughter (2,2,4)
I believe the answer is:
go to seed
'decline' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'visit by daughter' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'visit' could be 'see' (synonyms) and 'see' is found within the answer.
'daughter' could be 'd' and 'd' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'goto' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for go to seed that I've seen before include "Decline" , "Become unkempt or shabby" , "move in with children?" , "Lose power" , "Deteriorate through neglect" .)
