I know this goes against the "normal" way to play, but I even limped high pocket pairs (QQ, JJ) in early to mid position. I understand your giving them a chance to draw to their garbage, but this play has also been more profitable for me.
The action I have seen on 50NL is usually 4 or 5 people in the pot with most of them on drawing hands. And the bulk of them are chasing to the river. A lot of them are playing things like K3s, Q5s, etc. from any position. If they even get a sniff of their suit there going to stay in the hand. If you see 3 of the same suit on the board, you can almost guarantee that someone has a flush.
So limping more preflop and being more agressive postflop has been a better play for me lately.
