harvesting What to do after harvesting?

So I'm close to my first harvest and have a doubt regarding what to do. After I harvest all the peppers from a plant and there aren't more flowers, should I cut it back to promote new growth or will it flower again in the same nodes?

+1 to letting them be, especially if you have enough growing season left.
 
I don't have a season really so that's not a problem. Will it keep producing non-stop without growing if it's already reached its full size for the container size?

`Not to be anal (OK, a little!) if there are no more flowers that's not exactly "non-stop". But yes, the plant will produce as much as conditions, and Mother Nature, allow from the nodes that are already there.

Haha you're right. I meant that it won't stop producing for a prolonged period of time.
