Do greens have to be organic?

I normally buy organic collard greens, but lately my wallet is to stretched and my store stopped selling organic greens beside romaine lettuce so I bought just standard collard greens and mustard greens from krogers, I double washed them but before I feed them to my beardie is it alright to feed them non organic greens? It seems like a two sided opinion, I just need to be either confirmed he going to die if I give them to him or he'll be fine.
Thank you in advanced!

Organic is nice, but not necessary, so long as you give them a good scrub before feeding them. I wash my organic produce as well, I figure better safe than sorry.

I agree with Eavlynn. I usually buy organic only because that's the only store that sells the greens I use. I have bought some at my normal grocery store though and haven't had any problems. Just wash them real good.

I don't buy organic unless I'm going to a specific store half hour away I just really rinse them well.
