Best way to repair damaged fabric pots?

Some of the sides of my fabric pots (400 gallons) have been torn or otherwise damaged to varying degrees by a brush cutter head.

What's a quick and easy to repair?

For smaller rips I'm thinking of just stuffing some hardware mesh cloth patch behind it to close it up from potential rodents entering (does that evev make sense?)

I have a couple where i ripped it all the way up the side of the pot. For those, ....??? See together using some cord?

put a piece of cloth over the hole/gash then wrap the smart pot with chicken wire.

I've stitched them with zip ties and glued them with construction adhesive and wrapped em with shrink wrap. Not all at the same time.

Rodents get through smart pots easily. If you're worried about gophers you need to use some wire. Gophers can fit through chicken wire too. Peaceful Valley sells gopher wire or use hardware cloth or aviary wire.
