Purchased these as hanging nets for

Purchased these as hanging nets for trellis grown cantaloupe melons, that usually reach about 5-10 pounds. They seem to rip easy and the tie string rips thru the netting semi-easy if too much weight is put in all at one. I tested one with a 5 pound sack of flour first, and it held until you give it a little bounce, then it all ripped right thru. I missed the return window, so I’m using them in the garden anyway....but instead of growing the melon inside the bag, I hang the melon in it like a hammock, which doubles up the netting....so far so good.
