technically, MH is preferable for vegging and HPS for flowering, but when only using one light, HPS is prefered. Plants with stretch out a little more under HPS as MH promotes more compact growth (shorter internodal length). 6500K CFLs seem to help round out the light spectrum a little and you can use them with the HPS as long as you like, and with a 250w HPS you can stick your babies under there the moment you get it set up. A 250w light shouldn't shock them at all.
That sucks that you accidentally started your least forgiving plants first, but there are plenty of people here who will do their best to help you take care of your babies. My advice would be not to worry too much. Do the best you can and listen to the advice you receive at the city. You should be fine.
