More info: this evening I discovered that about 500 or so ants have
moved into the habenero pot. This is probably not the ideal situation.
Is it time for a good old fashioned re-pot?



I think its time to get a new plant.

As per a previous post I don't like "old" hab plants so I'd tend to do
away with it unless its actually performing.
However, here in PR where we are plagued with fire ants, a bit of
pancake syrup+boric acid mix nearby or even on the pot soil will usually
take care of the ant farm within a few days.
