That's really partly up to your own routine.It would never be wrong to bath daily but after 12-18 months you can reduce if you want to.I've noticed that at a certain stage of development they start to go into their water dish on their own, particularly if you are a bit late with their bath!All the while they enjoy and benefit from it I would keep it up,but it wouldn't matter about missing the odd day if you havn't time.Also make sure you spray their substrate as this helps with general humidity.

When is the best time to spray? Is that for all torts?

Mine are 14 months old and I still bathe everyday, I usually water the soil whilst they are in the bath or at night. I give nutrabol every other day as I have noticed they use the cuttlefish bone quite a bit now! They never used to. I can always hear them scraping their beaks against it.
