Origins and Lineage
Mullumbimby Madness emerged from Australia's Northern Rivers region in the 1970s, evolving from tall tropical sativas acclimatized to the subtropical climate. While its precise lineage is debated, it is widely believed to have Southeast Asian, particularly Thai landrace, and potentially Colombian genetics. It represents a stabilized regional landrace hybrid, developed through informal breeding and selection for vigor and mold resistance in its native environment.
