There isn't an organic form of potassium. Just about all potassium used as fertilizer is mined. If you purchase "organic" foods, the potassium is the same as any other "non-organic" food. There really is not difference between greensand and any other fertilizer that contains potassium (except for the fact that greensand barely has any potassium).

Urea is a real organic form of nitrogen. It was actually the first organic chemical made synthetically (proved that it could be done).
