Try to use:
set interfaces ge-x/y/z  hold-time down/up timers
By default up and down hold-timers are 0

   down milliseconds--Hold time to use when an interface transitions from up
    to down. The JUNOS software advertises the transition within
    100 milliseconds of the time value you specify.
    Range: 0 through 65,534 milliseconds
    Default: 0 milliseconds (interface transitions are not damped)

    up milliseconds--Hold time to use when an interface transitions from 
down
    to up. The JUNOS software advertises the transition within
    100 milliseconds of the time value you specify.
    Range: 0 through 65,534 milliseconds
    Default: 0 milliseconds (interface transitions are not damped)
