is that 1.25kg raw or cooked down? because raw isn’t actually that much, it’d cook down to like 2 micrograms following the law of leafy greens

What’s the definition of “good source” employed here?

I’m basing it on spinach which stinging nettles is only 25% worse than on potassium levels. I think a baked potato might be twice as good though, but I think I’d rather try and eat 1.25 kg of stinging needles in a day than 625 gr of baked potato.

I don’t think most people even consume 1.25kg of food in total per day. It seems implausible that one would have to supplement with a substantial quantity of 0 calorie greens just to get enough of a common and essential mineral. Which makes me think that the K content is average at best and rather less than common food stuffs.

Common… as in grocery store or as in laying around outside for free?
