Rather than gradually adjust their prices throughout the day, the Plorts sold on the Plort Market will only see their collective values change once per day. This market-wide price adjustment happens with the start of every in-game day, with values shifting the second that the date rolls over. As a result, you can expect this price change to happen every day at midnight.
