Default Wind has snapped my potatoe plants in half. Can I do anything?

Hi,

I was trying to grow 5 potatoe plants in containers, they looked to be
doing really well and i kept on banking the soil up round the stalks,
but they went wild & grew a lot taller than the pot.

Last nights strong wind has now snapped them all.

I have pulled one up & there are small bean shaped potatoes on them.

Is there anything i can do a)to reover these 5 plants & b) In future
to stop it happenning again?

Thanks very much.
