Wood-like tip?

Hello! I've this short-leafed aloe and recently I've noticed the one leaf tip has browned and went woody (probably not the right description, it's highly dried out in just that spot). I'm not sure if this is a reason of concern, just letting it go about itself or maybe a little surgery is in order.

Soil is 70-30 grit to organic, it was last bottom watered 3 weeks ago. The leaves look good, soil is dry under the perlite, so I'm not sure if this should be something to concern myself with.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hello! I've had these 3 lithops for about 8 months give or take. I'd say sometime in December they started to split and the new growth began appearing. I've limited watering (I don't think I've watered them in at least 4-6 weeks), in a blend that's a min 60/40, and they have adequate lighting under their growlight. This morning the baby of the bunch looked as above, and I'm concerned bc if I move the husk around the inside appears to be on a singular stalk that's quite thin.

I'm not sure if these 3 need a different approach, if the one is a goner, or if they're just doing their thing.
