It's going to be hard to tell. Email me photos of the plants after they have leafs.

If it grows like ****, it's a fuggle. If it grows like an animal, Cascade.
Also, fuggle is one of a few that will be discernible from cascade, IME, especially if you have known fuggle or cascades in your hopyard already. Fuggle are not vigorous growers/producers and their cones will be smaller and discernibly less pungent (more musty/herbal) than cascades.
Well I'm guessing cascade if going by growing tendency. Thing has taken off like a rocket!
Although the other cascade rhizome in partial shade is coming along less vigorously. Shade or non porting soil mix contributing to this?

My fuggles started the strongest of the 6 types.

Haha, I would agree with that. My first year Cascades (crowns) are about 3' tall and my fuggle is just throwing new shoots off.
