Just get a few cans of Camp Dry or a good spray tent waterproofing. Set up the tent and brush the flaky stuff off and spray the whole tent. Allow it to dry completely before refolding. I usually get about 3 years out of one application. The seam tape can be resecured with seam repair products. There are gels, tapes and what look like glue sticks.

Ridgeway kelty 890110

This page should have instructions for Kelty products, but the search function has neither "ridgeway" nor "elevation" so perhaps it is actually a different brand?

If I buy a field n forest dome tent, do I need to seam seal it?

ALL tents need to be seam sealed periodically. It is a good idea to do it with a new tent, but usually not required the first few times out. I also spray the fly with a new DWR coating as tents get older, and have sometimes re-waterproofed them elsewhere.

Do I need to ventilate my tent?

If you sealed the seams properly, your tent should now be waterproof enough to keep the rain and dew out. That means it is also waterproof enough to keep moisture condensation in. As you sleep your body gives off moisture through perspiration and breathing. It's no so fun waking up wet. Most tents provide a roof vent and doors or windows with screens and I also advise you to get a ventilator to your tent in order to make your experience more comfortable.

Need replacement poles for a Kelty Gunnison 2.1

If you are in Japan it might be a bit more complicated, but your first step is to email Kelty at [email protected] and explain what happened. They may send you anew pole, or tell you where to get one, or sell you one.

22 knot winds are nothing special, and most camping equipment should be just fine in those conditions.
