Serious question my home temperature normally is in the 70s and my humidity ranges between 60-70s. Should I use a humidifier and place them next to my plant or would it affect them ? I have a snack plant, money tree, elephant ear, zz raven and a passion plant ?

Your indoor humidity is that high? Snake and ZZs are more arid loving plants. The other will do more than just fine at 60%.

Yes that’s normally what it ranges. I built a green house.

Ok, so your greenhouse humidity is in that range? That’s plenty high for any tropical plant. I keep mine at about 50% and they are fine. But that’s in my house. I don’t want any mold issues.

How to lower humidity ?

I agree, no need for a humidifier. I would consider those conditions pretty great for most houseplants!
