You don't need a filter. You need a source of UV light. Plants shine in visible spectrum after being treated with UV. It doesn't last long tho.

I got a full spectrum converted nex6 in April so I've been looking around at filters

Isn't the sun a source of UV light?

Yes, but the visible light will overpower the glow.
