Ferns, algae, spikemosses, horsetails, and quillworts all reproduce asexually through the use of spores. Spores must risk landing on a favorable spot for germination in order to be successful.Note: fungi reproduce using spores, but they are not plants being neither plant nor animal. also fungi can produce both sexual and asexual spores.
In addition to ferns, several other plants reproduce using spores, including mosses, liverworts, and hornworts, all of which belong to the group known as bryophytes. Fungi, such as mushrooms and molds, also utilize spores for reproduction, although they are not classified as plants. Additionally, some algae, particularly certain types of green algae, can reproduce through spores as part of their life cycle. These spore-producing plants typically thrive in moist environments where their spores can germinate effectively.
For fungi and some lichen, reproduction is just by simple division, or by the use of minute spores.For ferns, spores are produced by the adult plant, and these grow in a suitable moist environment into a pro-thallus, which produces egg and (motile) sperm cells, which then fertilize with their mate from different pro-thallus. Thus a new final plant is produced.

Plants, fungi, and some bacteria use spores for reproduction. In fungi, spores are produced through processes like meiosis or mitosis, allowing for genetic diversity and dispersal. In plants, particularly non-flowering types like ferns and mosses, spores are part of their life cycle, enabling them to reproduce without seeds. Certain bacteria also produce spores, typically as a survival mechanism rather than for reproduction.
spores
they have vascular tissue & they use spores to reproduce

Pteridophytes or Pteridophyta describes seedless, vascular plants that use spores to reproduce.
They all are heterotrophs, have cell walls, and use spores to reproduce.
Mushrooms reproduce sexually by producing spores in specialized structures called basidia. These spores are released into the environment and can germinate under suitable conditions to form new fungal growth. When two compatible spores meet, they can fuse to form a new individual with genetic diversity.

Ferns do not produce seeds. Only flowering plants produce seeds.Ferns reproduce by producing spores.
Ferns reproduce by releasing spores, unlike most vascular plants, which usually use seeds.

Ferns reproduce by producing spores on structures on the undersides of their fronds called sori. The fern plant which is the sporophyte produces spores which germinate on free ground growing a prothallus structure (the gametophyte) where the gametes are produced (sperm and eggs). Because of the fact sperm must swim from these structures ferns usually live in damp areas.
