Pandas - most efficient way to replace values in one DataFrame from another, when a condition is met

Question

I have two Dataframes of identical Size. For simplicity's sake

    df1 =   
                start      n      end
    0        20200712  50000      20200812
    1        20200714  51000      20200814
    2        20200716  51500      20200816
    3        20200719  53000      20200819
    4        20200721  54000      20200821
    5        20200724  55000      20200824
    6        20200729  57000      20200824
    
    df2 =    
               start       n      end
    0        20200712      0      20200812
    1        20200714     15      20200814
    2        20200716  51500      20200816
    3        20200719  53000      20200819
    4        20200721     30      20200821
    5        20200724  55000      20200824
    6        20200729  57000      20200824

I would like to replace all 'n's in df2 with those in df1 when a condition is met(here n <50)

I have something like this in mind, which works.

df2.loc[df2['n']<50,'n'] = df1['n']

to get

           start      n            end
0        20200712  50000      20200812
1        20200714  51000      20200814
2        20200716  51500      20200816
3        20200719  53000      20200819
4        20200721  54000      20200821
5        20200724  55000      20200824
6        20200729  57000      20200824

What is the most efficient or 'proper' way when i have multiple such 'n'columns?
