Hydraulic should not require you to adjust them often.  I would say once a season would be good. I adjust my solids every other trip.  I think most guys adjust hydraulic by tighten till they stop chattering and the a half turn.

Unless you have excessive valve noise I wouldn't worry about adjusting them

X2 Hydraulic lifters don't move that much. Solids do though. I run my valves every night at the races just to make sure. I use EOIC Exaust Opening Intake Closing to adjust lash.
Here's a good video on YouTube that explains it. http://youtu.be/3gMYWLMAzao
