The plants look fine to me but they seem awfully small for being 5 weeks in.
Get a PPM meter and use it. I do not do rez changes without a PPM meter. Different plants can handle differemt levels of PPM's. I've got a plant I can push all the way up to 3000 PPM's without a problem, while I've grown some plants that can not go over 800 PPM's. I currently use Botanicare and my nutrients consist of Pure Blend Pro, Cal Mag, and Liquid Karma. If I'm changing 2 5 Gallon reservoirs I'll mix nutes according to the bottle for 8 gallons. Even mixing for 8 gallons the nutrient mix would push my PPM's to almost 2000. If you hit a White Widow plant with 2000 PPM's you would knock that thing dead in a matter of days.
When running new strains I usually start the nutrients around 600-700 PPM and work my way up from there. I would recommend you do the same. TDS meters can be purchased online for under $30.00 and they are money well spent. You'll be able to try new things and push your plants to limits if you have a TDS meter.

Do you think master kush is small at 17 inches tall and purple is 18 inches wide is that small for 5 weeks? my clones were small
Yeah, I'm guessing that since your clones were small, your plants might be smaller right now too.
You should be using less nutes than the bottles say - no matter how good the nutes are. Those bottles, however well intentioned they seem, are going to tell you that you need to use more than you should. That way, the companies make more money.
Use less and you'll have much healthier grows...
