##Solution

Though I do not know exactly how your script is changing times, I would always recommend using GetMinutesAfterMidnight and compare it with a number. I would also recommend for efficiency purposes, to change the while true do to a .Changed event. Having too many while loops may lead to lag in your game with too many of them.

##Final Script

game.Lighting.Changed:connect(function()
    if game.Lighting:GetMinutesAfterMidnight() == (60) then --Sixty minues in an hour right? 1:00?
        local Objects = game.ServerStorage.Stuff:Clone()
        Objects.Parent = game.Workspace
    end
end)

Doesn't work for some reason am I doing something wrong?

This script might end up breaking even more, because once the model "Stuff" has been placed in Workspace, if that model were to be completely removed it'd error saying nil value.
