NO, NO, NO!! You'll be slowly tearing up your 5th gear you do!

Better to double clutch it from 4 to 5 as follows:

Get the tractor rolling at full throttle in 4th. Now all at once step on the clutch, move the throttle to "idle" and slip the shifter into neutral. As the engine finishes coasting down, release then step on the clutch again as fast as possible. Now immediately slip the gear lever into 5th, then release the clutch and open the throttle again.

If you time it right it will shift from 4th to 5th with no gear clash whatsoever. (And your clutch will thank you!)

Note: This can only be done on a hard, level or slightly downhill surface. Going uphill or on soft ground the tractor will stop moving before you can double clutch it into 5th gear.
