Planting Basil in Planters

I'm getting desperate for fresh basil that doesn't cost an arm and a leg, it's too early to put my basil in the ground here as we are still getting freezes, but I was thinking of planting it in planters that I could them bring in at night. It is getting up to 55 and 60 degrees and we're getting good sunshine during the day.

I have to planters that are both three feet long, a foot and a half deep and a foot wide. I've previously put flowers in these but was thinking of putting my basil seeds in instead so I can start them now. If I do this, how many plants will be able to live in each planter would you think?
