My 2D particles have a 5 sec cooldown until it can emit again?

I'm just trying to get these particles to just play whenever I jump. It does this but I have to wait 5 seconds before I I can jump to get the particles to emit. Is it something im doing wrong? I would appreciate any help. Thanks. Here is apart of my code on what I use to get my particles to emit.

        func _physics_process(delta: float) -> void:
        	if Input.is_action_just_pressed("up"):
        		$jump_particles.emitting = true

seems more like 1 -2 seconds i have to wait on the ground not pressing anything and then jump and the particles will activate just seems weird. The way i have it setup is exactly the same way I'm playing the jump audio effect and that plays every single time.

You may need to set the preprocess property to a few seconds in advance so when the particles play, they start instantly at the correct time.
