Two out of the three truncatas I got have what I'm guessing is sun damage. I did put them where they got a little too harsh of light for a few days. It especially shows on one side of the plant. They seem very thin where they connect to the main trunk. Looks like the very last set of leaves might be on its way out on both. I've pulled them back to more shade. Top view all look healthy.
Question is do you think that is what this is sun damage? And am i correct that they do not normally lose the other most set of leaves? Thanks for any advice. Included in last pictures is a healthy one that looks to not be damaged.

They’re just resorbing old leaves. This is normal, especially after repotting as they get settled in their new pots and spend energy on growing new roots. I don’t see any sun damage.
haworthias when they’re stressed say maybe transplant shock, or sun damage or whatever, they tend to absorb their roots. they drop the roots off. so to generate new roots they start absorbing their older leaves. eventually they’ll grow new roots and stop absorbing their leaves, so don’t panic they’ll sort themselves out
