Here's some feedback!

I stretched the screen up to 15 newtons and let it sit for a couple hours. When I returned, I was able to get it to the tension I wanted. I also softened the corner some more, but I'm not sure how much help that was. They were pretty soft already. But regardless, can't hurt.

Anyways, thanks for the help!

From my experience you should be able to get a much higher tension on the first pull? I think we shoot for 28 newtons? The mesh brand and corner softening make a big difference.
